Britney Spears’ ex Jason Alexander arrested for DUI, drugs

Britney Spears’ ex-husband was arrested in Nashville last month.

The sheriff’s agents booked Jason Alexander, 39, on Jan. 26 on three felony charges: drunk driving, unlawful use of drug paraphernalia and possession or accidental exchange of a controlled substance, Page Six has confirmed.

Spears, 39, was married to Alexander, her childhood friend, for 55 hours in 2004 after she tied the knot in a Las Vegas chapel while under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

“Alcohol is a drug. Coffee is medicine. Cigarette is a drug, “Alexander told ABC News in 2012.” Yes, we used drugs. “

Their marriage was annulled shortly afterwards.

Alexander also violated Tennessee’s implied consent law, meaning he refused to participate in a blood alcohol content.

Alexander was held on $ 2,500 bail and released from prison later that day. He is due to appear in court on April 30.

Although their short marriage is long gone, Alexander still seems to care about the “Toxic” singer, as he was seen this summer during a “Free Britney” protest, which was organized to fight the control of her father about her finances.

“She absolutely wants her father not to be in the picture until the conservatory,” Alexander said on Instagram Live.
