Jessica Biel Spotted Filming Hours Before Husband Justin Timberlake’s Hamptons Arrest
In a shocking turn of events, Justin Timberlake was arrested for driving while intoxicated in the Hamptons on Monday evening. The incident unfolded when local authorities pulled over the pop icon after he blew through a stop sign. According to police reports, Timberlake was swerving his vehicle and appeared glassy-eyed. At the time of the arrest, he refused a breathalyzer.
The news of the 43-year-old’s arrest shocked his fan base, given Timberlake’s previously clean record. While the father of two enjoyed his time in the wealthy Hamptons enclave of Sag Harbor before the arrest, his wife of 12 years was filming a new series two hours away.

While Timberlake faced his legal troubles in the Hamptons, his wife, Jessica Biel, was fulfilling her professional commitments regarding a new series, reports the Independent. Blissfully unaware of the drama that would soon occur, Biel was spotted wearing a medieval-style corseted dress while filming The Better Sister alongside co-star Elizabeth Banks.
The 42-year-old’s new Amazon Prime Video series, highly anticipated by fans and critics, sees Biel returning to the small-screen in a challenging role. The Better Sister focuses on two estranged sisters who must confront their dark pasts when one is accused of a serious crime.
Biel stars as Claire, the older sister, who is a successful but emotionally troubled woman struggling to maintain control over her seemingly perfect life. The psychological thriller delves into themes of sibling rivalry, betrayal, and the quest for redemption, promising viewers an emotionally charged storyline.

The aftermath and future implications of Justin Timberlake’s arrest
According to the National College for DWI Offense, a DWI in New York involves a “.08 Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) or higher.” Timberlake likely faces a mandatory fine of $500-$1,000, 2-3 years probation, mandatory revocation of driver’s license for at least 6 months, and the use of a handheld breathalyzer for Timberlake’s car should he drive.
Despite this personal challenge, Timberlake and Biel have demonstrated resilience in the face of adversity. The couple previously navigated a scandal when the “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” singer was spotted drinking and holding hands with his Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright while filming the football drama in New Orleans.
Biel’s commitment to her work and Timberlake’s forthcoming legal proceedings will undoubtedly be closely watched by the public. As they navigate this turbulent period, their ability to maintain a united front will be crucial in shaping their legacy as one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples.
