SCANDAL ROCKS FASHION WORLD: Helena Christensen's Son Mingus Reedus Embroiled in Domestic Violence Drama

In a shocking turn of events, supermodel Helena Christensen was spotted strolling through New York City over the weekend with her 25-year-old son, Mingus Reedus, just days after he was arrested for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend. The drama has left fans and followers stunned, raising questions about the family's dynamics and the consequences of Norman Reedus's parenting.

As reported by thescholarlynote.com, Mingus was taken into custody on Saturday morning after a 911 call was made to report a woman in distress at an apartment on West 16th Street. When police arrived, the alleged victim accused Mingus of physically assaulting her, leaving her with bruising and substantial pain.

According to sources close to the investigation, Mingus allegedly used both hands to apply pressure to his girlfriend's neck by forcefully squeezing it, before hitting her right leg with a closed fist and throwing her to the ground. The woman, believed to be in her mid-30s, was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment and is currently seeking a court-ordered protection against Mingus.

Photos obtained by thescholarlynote.com show Helena Christensen being led out of the 10th precinct by police after Mingus's arrest. In a bizarre twist, the 56-year-old supermodel appeared to be smiling as she was escorted into a waiting police vehicle. When questioned about the incident, Mingus reportedly replied, "I didn't call the police," before laughing and saying, "No comment."

This shocking turn of events raises questions about Norman Reedus's parenting style and his relationship with his son. The Walking Dead actor has been involved in several high-profile relationships over the years, including a long-term romance with Helena Christensen, which resulted in their son Mingus's birth in 1999. After the couple split in 2003, Norman went on to start a family with actress Diane Kruger, welcoming a daughter in 2018.

UPDATE: Thescholarlynote.com reports that the alleged victim has filed a complaint against Mingus, detailing the incident to police and seeking a court-ordered protection. As the investigation continues, fans can't help but wonder: what's really going on behind closed doors with the Reedus family?
