bebe winans arrested
Grammy Award-winning gospel singer BeBe Winans has been arrested on a domestic violence charge. TheSmokingGun.com is reporting that the arrest stems from an incident on February 13, when the singer allegedly shoved his ex-wife Debra D. Winans to the ground in front of their two children, ages 10 and 13. According to the report, the two had a "verbal altercation" regarding "custody issues dealing with their children."
The incident reportedly took place at Winan's ex-wife's Nashville home where he had driven to pick up the kids. “The victim was telling the defendant of issues with the children when he became irate," says the report. Winans was briefly held at the Davidson County jail before posting $1000 bond.
One-half of the successful brother-sister gospel duo BeBe & CeCe, Winans is currently a judge on the BET reality series 'Sunday Best.' Ironically, his arrest comes one day before his good friend Oprah Winfrey is set to air a domestic violence special.
