Earlier this week, Christian Richard, the 45-year-old husband of Selling Sunset alum Christine Quinn, was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon - and today, it has emerged that he was arrested again the following day.
Sparking his first arrest, Christian threw a bag containing a glass bottle at his 35-year-old wife, narrowly missing her but striking their 2-year-old son at their home in the Hollywood Hills.
Their 2-year-old son, born in 2021 and also named Christian, was taken to hospital afterwards by his mother.
Christian was arrested and held on a $30,000 bond at the time.

TMZ reported that Christine was offered an emergency protective order against her husband, which she accepted and was put into effect for seven days.
And today, it has emerged that his second arrest took place on Wednesday night after he arrived at their shared home and violated Christine’s restraining order.
According to LA County Sheriff records, Christian posted his second $30,000 bond just hours after the arrest, at around 4:45am on Thursday.
An insider told Page Six that Christine and her son were not on the property but are currently staying in a separate 'safe location’.
It has also been claimed that Christine was not the person who summoned the authorities to her house.
By Wednesday night, Christian had been released once again.
At the time of his first arrest, spokesman for the LAPD. Jeff Lee, told the Daily Mail: "A victim and a suspect were involved in a domestic dispute when the suspect threw a bag at the victim with a glass bottle inside of it.
"It missed the victim, but that object struck a child. The suspect was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon."
This series of shocking events comes as a shock to many who have been following Christine and Christian’s marriage.
Following their lavish wedding in 2019, Christine said: “'Him and I had an amazing steak dinner and got to know each other, and we just hit it off right away.
“He's everything that I ever wanted. And then [my friend's] like, 'Also, he's looking for a house', and I was like: 'double bonus'.”
Christian is the creator of Foodler, an American online food ordering service which sold to GrubHub in 2017 for a $51 million. He is worth an estimated $20 million as of 2024.
Tyla previously reached out to the LAPD and Christine’s representatives for comment.
