James Kennedy and Ally Lewber’s relationship has taken a dramatic turn, with a December 2024 arrest casting a shadow over their once seemingly sweet romance. Their story began after James’ breakup with ex-fiancée Rachel “Raquel” Leviss in late 2021, leading him to start dating Ally in 2022. The pair quickly became an Instagram-official couple by March 2022, and even co-wrote a song together, A Love Song, which debuted in August 2024.
Ally, who has a background in PR and TV production, works as a receptionist at Soho House & Co. and describes herself as a spiritual astrologer, model, and entertainment industry professional. Despite her efforts to carve out her own identity outside of her relationship with James, the couple’s relationship has been overshadowed by the ongoing drama in the Vanderpump Rules universe.
On December 12, 2024, James was arrested on charges of misdemeanor domestic violence following an incident at his home. According to reports, a witness saw the couple arguing, with James allegedly grabbing Ally during the altercation. Although no visible injuries were reported, the authorities determined the situation warranted an arrest. This incident has brought more attention to the troubled couple’s relationship, leaving fans wondering what comes next for them, especially with the show undergoing significant changes.
As the Vanderpump Rules cast navigates new dynamics in the wake of this event, Ally’s attempt to forge her own path amidst the chaos may prove challenging, particularly with the negative attention surrounding the domestic violence charges. Whether or not James and Ally can weather the storm remains uncertain, and their future on and off-screen looks increasingly complicated.
