News broke this morning that Nathan Griffith was arrested for a DUI in North Carolina. The Teen Mom star has had his fair share of legal troubles in the past, and a DUI is never a great look.

Nathan has been struggling to get full custody of their son, Kaiser for a while now, and not. Back in 2017, his mother Doris Davidson took Jenelle to court to attempt to claim custody of her grandson. She filed an emergency request for full custody of Kaiser.

In court documents obtained by Radar Online, Doris leveled some major accusations. In the filing, Doris claims that she has a “warm, close, and loving relationship” with Kaiser, and that “the close relationship has been severely jeopardized with [his parent]’s constant threats, belittling, and name calling.”

As of lately, Nathan has discussed suing for custody again after his ex, Jenelle Evans, had issues with CPS over the summer.

When Jenelle regained custody of her children, Nathan decided he should try and sue her for full custody of their son. That didn’t go so well, and even Nathan’s sister was supportive of Jenelle keeping her children.

The Hollywood Life spoke with Nathan’s sister, Heather Griffith, to get her inside scoop on the story.

“I think a lot of things have been exaggerated and blown out of proportion,” she said. “I don’t see Jenelle as an unfit parent or someone that doesn’t love her kids.”

Heather discussed how Jenelle kept her head high throughout the entire custody battle.

“I watch her go though this process, and she’s tried to remain so positive but she was just so sad,” she told the outlet. “I don’t see her as this horrible, vindictive person that she’s constantly being played out to be. I think she is just constantly under attack and I don’t think that she’s unfit as a parent.”

Jenelle regained custody of her children on July 4, but Nathan claimed he hired a lawyer before the CPS ordeal began. That all may be going by the wayside though, since Nathan was just arrested for a DUI.

According to reports by Radar Online and TMZ, Nathan was arrested on the evening of Thursday, October 17 in Cary, North Carolina. He was arrested outside a grocery store for “driving while impaired.”
