The fiancé of Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans has been arrested after allegedly physically assaulting her.

Nathan Griffith, 27, proposed to the mum-of-two two months ago, but was reportedly arrested for domestic violence after an incident between himself and Jenelle, 23.

An officer at Jenelle’s local police department in Horry County, South Carolina, told E! News: "At about 4:15 p.m. today, Horry County Police Officers responded to a residence on Eagle Creek Drive, in the Myrtle Beach section of Horry County, for a domestic disturbance.

"This is the location where a television show called Teen Mom 2 is being filmed.”

He continued: “Officers investigated and determined that an assault had taken place, as a result of an argument between two persons who were determined to be household members.

"Officers arrested one Nathan Griffith, 27 years of age, of Myrtle Beach, SC. He has been charged with one count of Criminal Domestic Violence and he is presently being held at the Horry County Detention Centre.”

Jenelle was also in trouble with the law earlier this week when she was arrested for driving on a suspended license.

In 2013 Jenelle was arrested on heroin and assault charges. She also suffered a miscarriage in the same year.
