New disturbing details are surfacing about the early morning Florida bar fight that lead to the arrest of Ugly Betty star and Hallmark favorite Eric Mabius.

The 53-year-old is best known for playing Daniel Meade on the ABC series Ugly Betty, which ran for four seasons from 2006 to 2010.

Mabius was arrested on early Thursday morning after a bar fight that involved two females.

He is accused of pushing one woman to the ground and ripping a ‘handful’ of hair from her scalp, according to TMZ.

The Nassau County sheriff’s department responded to a call about a bar fight in the city of Yulee, Florida, a city about 25 minutes north of Jacksonville in Nassau County.

The sheriff’s deputy arrived around 2:13 AM and found a man and a woman who were both ‘extremely intoxicated,’ though neither were identified.

They were said to be yelling at people inside the bar, as two deputies helped the woman outside, and while she laid on the ground, the report said she, ‘continued to resist’ on the ground.

The report added that the bartender and several other patrons told the woman she was being obnoxious and wanted her to leave, which prompted the woman to spit at several patrons.

That is when Mabius pushed that woman and another female to the ground, before getting on top of the second woman and pulling her hair, with the report adding that he actually ripped hair from her scalp.

Many bar patrons separated them, with Mabius behaving belligerent when the authorities arrives.

The arrest report added that he refused commands to sit down and even walked behind one of the deputies, which seemingly prompted his arrest.

Mabius and both of the drunken women were arrested for battery and resisting without violence.

The actor’s shock mugshot showing the star’s battered face was released earlier on Thursday.

He was booked into the Nassau County Jail and Detention Center just before 6am and faces two misdemeanor charges, battery and resisting an officer without violence, per TMZ.

The mugshot showed the near-unrecognizable star looking dazed, with what appeared to be a cut and purple bruise by his right eye, while clad in a prison jumpsuit.

Mabius got married to his high school sweetheart, Ivy Sherman in 2006, a decade after they started dating at Amherst Regional High School in Amherst, Massachusetts.

They both share two sons together, Maxfield Elliot and Rylan Jaxon, 16 after they tied the knot.

After Ugly Betty went off the air in 2010, the family relocated to his home state of Massachusetts.

‘My kids don’t need a big house. They just need to be with their dad and mom” Mabius said in a 2014 interview with Cape Cod Times.

Mabius and Sherman ultimately split in 2016, with the divorce settled in 2018, though he has never spoken publicly about the split.

However, the actor debuted a new mystery woman on his Instagram back in December 2023.

While she has been featured in several posts between December 2023 and October 2024, he has yet to identify her by name or tag her in the posts.

It’s unclear if he’s still with the woman from those posts or not, though it’s been four months since he’s posted a snap with the mystery woman.

DailyMail.com has contacted a representative for Mabius for comment.

Ugly Betty was an American comedy-drama about Betty Suarez who lands a job at a prestigious high fashion magazine despite her lack of style and physical appearance.

It won 42 awards and 92 nominations during its four-season run, including two Golden Globes – one for Best Comedy Series and the other for Ferrera, who won Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy in 2007.

After Ugly Betty went off the air, Mabius went on to star in the Hallmark Channel series Signed, Sealed, Delivered.
