Michelle Branch has been arrested for allegedly hitting her husband, The Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney, in the face after claiming he cheated on her.

According to the police report, police were dispatched around 2 AM for a “possible domestic disturbance”.

Michelle admitted to slapping her husband in the face “one to two times,” though he did not have any visible injuries.

Michelle was taken into custody but released early because she is breastfeeding the pair’s 6-month-old.

If her husband did cheat on her, do you think a slap in the face is justified? How would you react if you found out your spouse was having an affair?
