The former star of Home Improvement, Zachery Ty Bryan, once again finds himself in legal trouble. He and his fiancée of three years, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, were apprehended in Oregon this past Saturday.

The 44-year-old, who rose to fame as a child actor, is currently detained without bail at the Lane County Jail in Eugene. His incarceration is due to a probation violation stemming from domestic violence convictions in 2020 and 2023. Bryan’s probation period, initially set for three years, is scheduled to conclude in October 2026.

Meanwhile, the 32-year-old Cartwright, formerly a jetback instructor, is also behind bars. She faces charges including driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUII), three counts of reckless endangerment, and attempted first-degree assault.

Concerningly, Bryan and Cartwright, who became engaged in 2022, are parents to three young children: their three-year-old daughter Kennedy, and twins Parker and Sequoia, who are two years old.

Earlier this year in January, Bryan was detained in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, for second-degree domestic violence against an unnamed woman with whom he shares children.

In January, the troubled actor was arrested for second-degree domestic violence against an unidentified woman, whom he shared children with, in Myrtle Beach, SC.

In 2023, Bryan served seven days in the same jail and was sentenced to 36 months of supervised probation for domestic violence against an unidentified woman.

And in 2020, the Colorado native was ordered by the same court to attend a batterer intervention program after being charged with domestic violence against the 5ft10in blonde.

Bryan’s substantial rap sheet also includes DUI arrests in Arapaho, OK in October 2024 and La Quinta, CA in February 2024.

As recent as July, an unidentified ex-girlfriend was granted a five-year restraining order after accusing the former sitcom star or physically abusing her, but no criminal charges were filed.

‘Being thrust into the spotlight at nine years old brought pressures I wasn’t equipped to handle,’ Bryan told TMZ on November 11.

‘But that’s no justification for my choices as an adult.’

The nineties teen idol – who says he started drinking at age 14 – understands that ‘domestic violence in any form is unacceptable’ and he’s embarking on ‘a journey toward personal growth.’

‘The truth is, I’ve struggled with the lasting effects of early fame, addiction, and poor decision-making, which have hurt people I care about and led to repeated legal issues, including DUIs and past domestic incidents,’ Bryan explained.

The crypto enthusiast (R, pictured in 1992) first found fame playing Tim Allen’s (L) onscreen son Brad Taylor in all eight seasons of the ABC sitcom Home Improvement spanning 1991-1999

‘This latest situation, involving a restraining order and serious accusations, has been a painful wake-up call.’

The crypto enthusiast is also father to four children – twin daughters Gemma + Taylor, 11; daughter Jordana, 9; and son Pierce, 6 – during his 12-year marriage to high school sweetheart Carly Matros, who filed for divorce in 2020.

THR published an exposé in 2023 accusing Bryan of earning $50K by running a fraudulent agriculture-technology start-up scheme.

He hasn’t had an acting role since playing The President’s Aide #1 in Netflix’s seven-episode superhero series The Guardians of Justice (Will Save You!) in 2022.
