Fashion designer Wayne Cooper was jailed after allegedly breaching bail conditions for his domestic violence charges.
Cooper, 61, was arrested about 8am on Friday in northern NSW after allegedly failing to report to police.
He is accused of assaulting his wife Elizabeth Adams, who he married in Byron Bay last December.
Cooper has been subject to strict bail conditions after allegedly assaulting Ms Adams twice at a Bondi hotel earlier this month.
NSW Police confirmed a 61-year-old was arrested in Myocum, 13km northwest of Byron Bay, and charged with one count of breach of bail.
The British-born designer fronted Parramatta Bail Court via videolink on Saturday and was released on bail again.
Cooper has pleaded not-guilty to domestic violence-related common assault and is expected to contest the charge of contravening an AVO.
He is set to face Waverley Local Court on May 19, 2025.

Cooper and Adams live in a multi-million dollar resort-style home in Myocum in the Byron Bay hinterland.
Described in real estate listings as an unparalleled luxury coastal paradise, the three-level, five bedroom estate listed in court documents as Cooper’s residence sold for almost $3.9million in 2023.
The British-born designer popped the question to Ms Adams when he hid an engagement ring in a bowl of caviar during a romantic dinner at Bondi Icebergs.
The couple had been dating for just eight months following the breakdown of Cooper’s 25-year relationship with former model Sarah Marsh.
Cooper rose to fame in the 1990s with his fashion labels BRAVE and WAYNE, which sold in boutiques and Myer stores nationwide.
He has also been a repeat guest on reality TV show Australia’s Next Top Model.
