Christian Richard, the husband of Selling Sunset alum Christine Quinn, has filed for a restraining order against his wife.
On 19 March, Richard, 44, was arrested for charges of assault with a deadly weapon following an alleged altercation with Quinn, 35, in their Hollywood Hills home.
Police claimed that Richard had thrown a bag containing glass at his wife but narrowly missed, striking their 2-year-old son instead.

He was held on $30,000 bond and released after it was posted, according to public records.
The second arrest, which came 24 hours after his first after he allegedly turned up at their shared home, violating Quinn's emergency protective order - which had been put into effect by law enforcement for 7 days.
LAPD confirmed his arrest to People, telling the outlet: "Last night at approximately 11:40 p.m. our Hollywood officers responded to a radio call.
"The suspect, Dumontet, Christian, was arrested for violation of a restraining order."
It has been since reported that Richard has filed a restraining order against Quinn.
In documents obtained by People, Richard has requested that Quinn move out and stay 100 yards from his LA home.
According to the outlet, his request stems from the alleged incident in March, where he claims the couple had argued over Quinn's two dogs, which he further claims she 'refuses to have house or crate trained'.
He further claims that the Selling Sunset star refused to clean up after her dogs, telling him 'that she tried to clean but was not going to do anything further'.
The documents - which refer to Richard by his last name, Dumontet - allege: "At that point, Mr. Dumontet grabbed the trash bag from the floor and threw it to the side of the room, against the wall.
"Mr. Dumontet did not throw the bag towards Ms. Quinn or their son. "Additionally, there was no glass in the bag, as there was no broken glass in the room or anywhere in the house."
In the documents, Richard denies the allegations made against him and also denies that there have ever been 'incidents of domestic violence within the relationship'.
He also claims Quinn 'suddenly filed an EPO (emergency protection order) against me using false allegations of domestic violence'.
US Weekly reported that a judge has not yet granted Richard's restraining order.
Tyla has contacted Quinn's reps for comment.
Richard and Quinn were married in 2019 in a lavish ceremony which featured on season 2 of Selling Sunset.
Quinn gave birth to their son, Christian, in 2021.
Following their marriage, Quinn made comments about their bond, saying: "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."
