Falen Vaughn, mother of Season 7 Unexpected star Bella Vaughn, was reportedly arrested in Arkansas Monday night after allegedly putting her hands on a police officer following an argument outside of the home of Bella’s baby daddy Hunter Johnson’s father.
In a video posted to TikTok by @MichelleAnnXO, the 39-year-old grandmother is seen sitting in the middle of a street as a police officer cuffs her and proceeds to walk her to his police car.
As Falen is being apprehended, her husband, Kris Vaughn, can be seen standing off to the side before appearing to get into his truck, with Hunter and Bella also standing/sitting nearby and watching the scene unfold.
At one point in the clip, Falen addresses a seemingly emotional Hunter, telling the 14-year-old dad, “Hunter, it’s OK baby, calm down.”
She does not appear to address Bella or Kris in the video, though.
Falen’s not-so-unexpected trip to jail, according to @michelleannxo, occurred after Hunter’s mom, Stacie Riddle, and Hunter’s stepmom, Brettney Johnson, allegedly got into an argument earlier in the day over Stacie “refusing” to allow Hunter to ride with a family friend to his dad Casey Johnson’s home after baseball practice, as Casey and Brettney’s work schedules did not allow them to pick up Hunter themselves. Instead, Stacie reportedly picked up Hunter, despite it being Casey’s parenting time.
As a result, Hunter’s dad and stepmom contacted police, who then instructed Stacie to bring Hunter to his dad’s home, which Stacie did. However, she reportedly didn’t come alone, as her husband, Clay, came along, as did Falen, Kris, Bella, and Bella and Hunter’s son, Wes.
Amid the family dispute, Falen allegedly put her hands on at least one of the police officers “multiple times” and was “shoving them” in an attempt to get to Hunter’s stepmom, which is what led to her being arrested for disorderly conduct and obstructing governmental operations.
According to records obtained by The Ashley, Falen posted bond ($220 for each charge, so a total of $440) and was released later Monday night.
Falen’s arrest comes on the heels of Casey preparing to battle Stacie, as well as Falen, in court for custody of both Hunter and Wes, on claims that Stacie and Bella’s parents have created an “unstable and unwholesome environment” for Hunter.
Despite Casey and Stacie having 50/50 temporary custody of Hunter, Casey is now seeking full custody of his teen son. Additionally, he asked a judge earlier this month to ban Hunter from being around the Vaughns unless he is present to supervise. Casey is also suing Falen for custody of their grandson, Wes.
According to court documents, Falen is scheduled to appear in court on June 8 for a plea and arraignment hearing.
The Ashley will have more info on this soon. Stay tuned…

@michelleannxo FREAKY FALEN HAS BEEN ARRESTED!!!!! In front of her daughter and grandson at Hunters dads house like the obsessed weirdo she is! Keep her locked up! #tlc #unexpected #arrested #teenmom #obsessed
UPDATE! Isabella Leal-Stone— who stars on Season 7 of ‘Unexpected’ with Falen and Bella— took to TikTok after the news of Falen’s arrest went public. Isabella has made it clear in the past that she’s no fan of Falen, and on Tuesday gave her thoughts on Falen’s arrest, stating that it’s weird that Falen goes “this hard” for her daughter’s boyfriend Hunter.
“Go this hard behind your kid, not your kid’s baby daddy! You’ve just got it all wrong,” Isabella said. “You’re supposed to go this hard behind your daughter. If this had something to do with your daughter then I would understand. But no. They took Hunter’s phone. That’s why [Falen & Co.] pulled up, four cars deep at the house.
“I personally think that ‘Unexpected’ Season 7 has the craziest cast, including me. But I’m not crazy; I’m levelheaded,” she continued. “But this is just bizarre. Who’s next?”

What a psycho. Hunter’s dad’s lawyer must be tickled. You just know Kris is so sick of her shit and the entire situation.
Good Lord…. A 14 year old should be skateboarding and feeling nervous about his first kiss, this poor kid has been failed in so many ways and will pay for it for the rest of his life.
They are steadily making Casey’s case for him.
Morons. Total morons. Casey just got fabulous ammo for the custody case! Hope they get on the docket fast!
