Lord Of The Rings - Bean Arrested Over Wife Assault Claims


LORD OF THE RINGS star SEAN BEAN has been arrested on suspicion of domestic assault.

The actor was questioned by police in London for six hours after his new wife Georgina filed a complaint.

She alleges the 49-year-old assaulted her during a row at their London home. But Georgina, 29, later dropped the assault claim.

A police spokesman said: "Police were called to a residential address. A male was arrested.

"He was subsequently informed no further action was being taken against him."

His wife told reporters following Bean's release from custody, "Everything is OK. Sean and I are at home together enjoying the sunshine. He was arrested. Everything was blown out of proportion.

"The police held him quite a while, but Sean is fine and I'm fine. There's no problem between us."

The couple wed in February (08). It is Bean's fourth marriage.
