CINCINNATI (WXIX) - Nick Lachey has been ordered to anger management classes and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings after an incident with a paparazzo in Los Angeles, according to TMZ.

The incident happened in 2022 after Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, went out to a steakhouse in Beverly Hills. Lachey reportedly saw a woman filming the couple and became enraged, reaching for the woman’s phone.

The incident was caught on camera (see below).

Lachey was not charged, TMZ reports citing the L.A. County D.A.

Instead, Lachey was reportedly sent to a diversion program to avoid prosecution for assault and battery.

The Daily Mail carried an interview with the woman, Jody Santos.

“He’s had plenty of time to apologize, but instead he just figured I would go away,” Santos said. “What he did was wrong. Attempting to bust his fist through my car window when all I was doing was taking photographs of him. He should have been thanking me for the free publicity. I mean, really. Talk about an oversized ego.”

TMZ reports Lachey apologized for his reaction shortly after the incident, saying he should have known better.
