Just as singer-songwriter Michelle Branch announced the end of her marriage to Black Keys drummer Partrick Carney, she was arrested on Thursday after slapping her husband during an argument.
The “Everywhere” singer was taken into custody after Nashville, Tennessee, police were called to the couple’s home on Thursday for a possible domestic disturbance, according to an affidavit in the case obtained Friday by the L.A. Times.
Branch, 39, was booked and charged with domestic assault hours later and released after making a $1,000 bond, said John Adams, deputy chief of staff for the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office. She is scheduled to appear in court Nov. 11.
