CAROLINE Flack has been arrested and charged with assault, the police have confirmed.
The Winter Love Island host is now due in court following her arrest.
When and why was Caroline Flack arrested?
On December 12 Caroline Flack was arrested and charged with assault following an alleged late night bust-up.
A Met Police spokesperson confirmed the Love Island presenter has been charged with assault by beating following an incident in the early hours of that day.
The Daily Star reports the 40-year-old had been involved in a row with her tennis player boyfriend Lewis Burton.
A Met Police spokesperson said officers had been called to a domestic disturbance and a 27-year-old man required medical treatment after suffering minor injuries.
When will Caroline Flack appear in court?
A statement said: “Caroline Flack, 40, of Islington was charged on Friday, 13 December with assault by beating.
“She will appear on bail at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court on Monday, 23 December.
“This follows an incident at approximately 05:25hrs on Thursday, 12 December after reports of a man being assaulted. He was not seriously injured.”
If convicted with Caroline Flack go to prison?
It is too early to say as Caroline has only just been charged and she hasn’t appeared in court yet.
We do know that if found guilty of assault by beating in the UK you could face a prison term of up to six months.
However, a person charged with a first offence is likely to receive a fine rather than a custodial sentence.
