Michelle Theriot Aka Grandma Mimi On Outdaughtered Was Arrested On DUI

Michelle Theriot aka grandma Mimi on Outdaughtered was arrested for driving under the influence. According to the daily mail, police stopped her black Ford SUV soon after midnight because it was swerving and straddling the shoulder.

Theriot took her time coming to a halt, and the police claimed there was a heavy perfume odor when they approached the SUV.

According to police enforcement, it’s typical for people to use perfumes or colognes to mask the stench of alcohol or other drugs. When she was requested to present her driver’s license, she was characterized as being ‘lethargic,’ with slurred speech and bloodshot eyes.

Theriot allegedly acknowledged drinking that evening, although first maintaining she only had two glasses of wine.

She eventually revised her statement, claiming she didn’t drink wine but instead drank two Michelob Ultras. When Theriot came out of her car, she appeared to be inebriated as well.

According to police, she had difficulty standing up and was wobbling, and she failed repeated field sobriety tests. Officers on the scene detained her and drove her to jail after she attempted to re-enter her vehicle.

Fans Were Surprised To See Michelle Theriot Mugshots On Social Media

The arrest of TLC’s grandma for DUI and her mugshot on social media created a big schism among OutDaughtered supporters. Some fans passionately believed that everyone makes mistakes.

These fans chastised Danielle Busby for ostensibly abandoning MiMi after her incarceration.

admirers, on the other hand, were not so quick to forgive Theriot after her arrest. No justification, these fans agreed, was a valid reason for getting behind the wheel while inebriated.

Theriot’s Instagram account was removed following her arrest, as previously reported. It was assumed at the time that this action was made to safeguard both MiMi and the TLC series.

OutDaughtered viewers were astonished when Theriot continued to appear on the show’s latest season after her imprisonment.

Fans, on the other hand, believe the episodes were shot before MiMi was imprisoned. However, some fans wonder if the arrest would prompt TLC to avoid using Grandma MiMi in any future episodes of the show.

After a year of her arrest and deactivation of Instagram, she was back again making her presence felt on social media. Moreover, she is seen with the cast of OutDaughter, which suggest that she is filming again with the team.
