Alex Reid has been arrested.

Police were called to a disturbance at the home in Essex he shares with Chantelle Houghton - with whom he has daughter Dolly - in the early hours of this morning and he is currently in police custody "on suspicion of criminal damage and using violence to secure entry".

A spokesperson for the Essex Police told MailOnline: "Police were contacted just before 1.30am this morning with reports of a disturbance at a property in Spital Lane, Brentwood.

"A 37-year old man from Brentwood was arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and using violence to secure entry, and is currently in police custody."

Police were pictured leaving the property this morning and Houghton's mother was seen entering.

Reid recently confessed he had made "bad mistakes" throughout his relationship with Houghton.

He said: "I'm doing everything in my power to make it work. I've made bad mistakes and choices. I love both of my girls with all my heart, they're my life. It does make me sad because I'm a good guy.

"We were talking about getting married the other day. We were talking about getting another house."
