(UPDATE: 5/13/2021 AT 3:00 P.M. ET): On May 13, it was announced that Ronnie would not be charged in this domestic violence case. “We are very happy that after further investigation both the LA Country District Attorney’s office and the LA City Attorney’s office determined that criminal charges were not warranted against Ronnie related to the incident that occurred in April,” Ronnie’s attorneys, Scott E. Leemon and Leonard Levine said in a statement, obtained by Hollywoodife. “As we previously stated, there was a rush to judgement by the media. We will review the alleged violation of probation claim and deal with it accordingly. As for Ronnie, he is currently seeking medical treatment for psychological issues that he has ignored for a long time. His only present goal is to address these issues professionally and make himself a better person and the best father he can be to his loving daughter.”
Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, 35, has run into trouble with the law again. He was arrested in Los Angeles on a domestic violence charge at 11:50 a.m. PT on April 22, which the Los Angeles Police Department’s public information officer confirmed with HollywoodLife. His bail was set at $100,000. We have also reached out to Ronnie’s rep, who had no comment at this time.
More than a year after the arrest, we learned that “Ron talks to Jen as minimally as possible,” which a source EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife in Nov. 2020. The insider added, “They do not get along at all anymore. Things between them are probably as good as they’ll ever be and they have to be in one another’s lives but it’s safe to say these two will never be friends.”

Ronnie has went on to find new love. He became Instagram official with eyelash technician Saffire Matos in Oct. 2020; about three months after their social media debut, a source close to Ronnie EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife, “Since Ronnie’s been dating Saffire he can’t stop smiling and they feel like they got the old ‘Ron’ back. The fun-loving, laughing, positive guy that they’ve always known.”
