Former Scotland captain Stuart Hogg was arrested outside his ex-wife’s home last weekend, according to a report.
Hogg, who retired from rugby ahead of the World Cup last year, is said to have been arrested on suspicion of causing fear and alarm by acting in a threatening or abusive manner last weekend.
He appeared to have attended an event alongside various celebrities, posing for photos with the likes of actor Martin Compston and chef Greg Wallace, to watch his former side take on England in the Six Nations at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium.
Following the game, which Scotland won 30-21, Hogg shared images to social media with the caption: ‘What a day. What a result. Cracking performance from the Scotland lads. Really enjoyed being amongst these legends @mrmartincompston & @greggawallace in the @ignite.experiences Players Lounge.’
It is reported by The Sun, however, that he was just hours later arrested at his old family home in Hawick, Roxburghshire, at around 5pm on Saturday.

He is said to have been taken to Hawick police station and later released, though he is set to appear in court soon after a report was submitted to prosecutors.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: ‘Around 4.40pm on Sunday, 25 February, police were called to an address in Hawick.
‘A 31-year-old man was arrested and charged. He was released on an undertaking to appeal at Jedburgh Sheriff Court at a later date.
‘A report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.’
Police were also reportedly called at the start of the year when Hogg was, according to The Sun, involved in a boozy New Year’s Day family bust-up at his brother’s house.
Hogg, who now carries out occasional punditry work, split with his wife Gillian last year before the birth of the couple’s fourth child, and soon went public with his relationship with jockey and Sky Sports presenter Leonna Mayor.
He was awarded an MBE in the King’s New Year’s Honours List last year having made 100 caps for his country and topping the list of their all-time leading try scorers.

He has four children with Gillian, and, according to The Sun, had refused to leave the family home upon their split, with his then-pregnant ex-partner moving in with her parents with the couple’s three children.
It is said that Hogg called time on his rugby career in order to spend more time with his family.
