VIDEO – WHAT WOULD BILL W. SAY? –
March 21, 2023 – Nick Lachey has been ordered to attend anger management classes and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Multiple outlets report the 49-year-old singer’s court-ordered classes come after a heated exchange with photographer Jody Santos in March 2022. ET has reached out to both Lachey and the Beverly Hills Police Department for comment.
In a statement to ET, the Los Angeles District attorney explained, “Mr. Lachey has not been charged with misdemeanor assault and battery. Instead he is participating in LADA’s Prefiling Diversion program which was established in 2017. As part of these conditions he must participate in anger management classes and attend Alcoholic Anonymous meetings. Successful completion of the Prefiling Diversion Program will result in no criminal charges being filed.”
The incident in question happened one year ago, when photographers snapped pics of Lachey out to dinner with his wife, Vanessa Lachey, and a friend. In an interview with Daily Mail, who was first to report the news, Santos explained what led to the heated altercation.
