Madison Channing-Walls— the troubled former star of The Real World: Skeletons (and baby mama of The Challenge star Tony Raines) — has been arrested yet again.
The Ashley can exclusively reveal that Madison was arrested on January 30 for possession of a controlled substance. This arrest comes less than a year after Madison was released from jail after serving time for a different possession of a controlled substance arrest in early 2025.
According to court records obtained by The Ashley, Madison was allegedly once again picked up with a controlled substance in the penalty group 1 or 1-B. (Substances like methamphetamine and heroin are part of Penalty Group 1, while Penalty Group 1-B is just for fentanyl and its derivatives.)
Because Madison allegedly had less than one gram of the substance on her, the charge would likely be a Misdemeanor A charge, instead of the felony charge she would have been given had she had more than a gram on her. However, because Madison is a repeat offender this may change. (Last time she was arrested for possession of a controlled substance, she was found with fentanyl and meth. She pleaded guilty to that charge in April 2025.)
For her latest arrest, Madison delivered another shocking mugshot, showing her to be almost unrecognizable to what she looked like during and immediately after appearing on ‘The Real World.’
The court records state that Madison allegedly committed the offense in November, and that a warrant was issued for her arrest before she was locked up in January. The warrant was issued by Travis County, Texas, police and she was picked up in Cedar Park, Texas.
She was released on a $10,000 surety felony bond and is not currently behind bars.
Madison does not currently have custody of Harper, the almost-10-year-old daughter she shares with Tony.

Harper lives with Madison’s mom in Texas but has visitation with Tony. Shortly after Harper’s birth in 2016, Tony welcomed a second daughter, Isla, with his wife Alyssa Giacone. (The couple announced in December that they are expecting a baby in June as well.)
Madison– — who once (randomly) briefly dated Teen Mom 2 star Javi Marroquin— appeared with Tony on ‘The Real World: Skeletons’ in 2014 and was open on the show about her struggle with her past addiction to heroin. Tony has not spoken publicly about his baby mama’s arrest or addiction.
“I’m a recovering heroin addict,” she said on ‘Skeletons.’ “I am scarred for life from it. I just feel grateful to be alive.”
