On September 23, 2025, former Bachelor star Rycroft, 42, was arrested for a DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) incident. In the weeks since, Rycroft has spoken out about her personal struggles, writing on Instagram that "life really sucks right now" and that she is "trying to march forward."
Rycroft's lawyer, Bret Martin, has urged the public and media to withhold judgment until all the evidence is properly analyzed. He emphasized the fundamental principle of the justice system, where every individual is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Martin stated that an arrest is not an indication of guilt and that the circumstances surrounding Rycroft's case, including the conduct of law enforcement and the toxicology results, need to be closely examined before any conclusions are drawn.
Despite the ongoing legal process, Rycroft has received support from some fans, with one commenter acknowledging that "things happen" and encouraging her to "move forward with grace." Rycroft expressed gratitude for the "sweet words" in what she described as "a world of negativity."
