Rain Hannah Andreani, the longtime girlfriend of Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil, was arrested in Tennessee on a domestic-related assault charge, according to jail records and multiple reports. The 45-year-old makeup artist was booked into the Williamson County jail on Sunday, Nov. 1, and released the following day after posting a $5,000 bond. She is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 3. The arrest stems from an alleged argument at Neil’s home that escalated into claims of property damage and an alleged physical attack on the 65-year-old rocker. Neither Neil nor Andreani has issued a public statement about the incident.
The Arrest: What the Records Show
Jail records from the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office confirm that Rain Hannah Andreani was processed under her legal name and faced a domestic-related assault charge. The arrest took place in Franklin, Tennessee, a city roughly 21 miles south of Nashville where Neil and Andreani have been living on a ranch in recent years.
TMZ was the first outlet to report the arrest, citing inmate records and an unnamed source. The records show Andreani was released on Monday, Nov. 2, after her $5,000 bond was posted. People magazine independently reviewed the arrest records and confirmed the same details, including the Dec. 3 court date.
USA TODAY also reviewed the inmate records and reported that Andreani was booked on Nov. 1 and released the next day. The outlet reached out to a representative for Neil for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
The charge is listed as a domestic-related assault, a classification that in Tennessee can cover allegations of physical harm or fear of harm between people in a close relationship. The specific statute cited in the booking records has not been publicly detailed beyond the domestic-assault classification.
What Allegedly Happened Before the Arrest
A source who spoke to TMZ said the incident began with a verbal argument between Neil and Andreani. The argument’s cause has not been disclosed. According to the source, the dispute escalated when Andreani allegedly started destroying property inside Neil’s home and then allegedly assaulted the singer.
The same account appears in Page Six, which cited an insider saying Andreani was arrested for allegedly hitting Neil following a heated argument. The source also alleged that Andreani began wrecking the rocker’s home.
No further details about the alleged property damage or the nature of the alleged assault have been confirmed by law enforcement. The Williamson County Sheriff’s Office has not released a public incident report beyond the booking information. People contacted the sheriff’s office and Mötley Crüe representatives but did not receive a response at the time of publication.
A booking photo obtained by TMZ shows Andreani with a mostly expressionless face. The photo has circulated across entertainment outlets, but no additional statements from Andreani or her representatives have emerged.
Vince Neil and Rain Hannah: A 15-Year Relationship Timeline
Vince Neil and Rain Hannah Andreani first began dating in 2011. Over the next decade and a half, their relationship moved through several distinct phases, including a reported split and a later reunion.
- 2011: Neil and Andreani start dating. Andreani, a celebrity makeup artist, becomes a steady presence in Neil’s life away from the stage.
- 2020: Andreani reveals on Instagram that the couple’s Yorkshire terrier, California “Cali” Wolf, was killed by two neighborhood dogs. The couple later welcomes three new dogs into their home.
- February 2025: A private jet owned by Neil crashes into a parked aircraft at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona. Neil is not on board, but Andreani and a friend are passengers. The crash kills the 78-year-old pilot and leaves Andreani hospitalized with serious injuries, including several broken bones.
- May 2025: The couple reportedly splits after 15 years together. A source tells Page Six that Neil suspected Andreani was cheating.
- June 2025: Sources tell TMZ that Neil and Andreani are back together, roughly a month after the reported breakup.
- May 2026: Reports describe the couple as having reunited in May 2026, making the Nov. 1, 2026 arrest an unexpected turn in their long history.
The couple has largely kept their relationship private. Andreani last appeared on Neil’s Instagram page on Sept. 8, 2024, in a selfie captioned, “Winning on Sunday Funday with @rainhannah!” When Neil is not touring, the pair spend time at their horse ranch in Tennessee, where Andreani is also listed as the primary Superhost of a boutique vacation rental property called SchoolHouse Retreat in Leiper’s Fork.
Neil’s Health and Career Context
The arrest arrives during a period when Vince Neil has been managing significant health challenges while keeping Mötley Crüe active.
Neil suffered a stroke in December 2024. He later said doctors were unsure whether he would be able to perform on stage again. The band postponed a scheduled Las Vegas residency in 2025 while Neil underwent what was described as a “required medical procedure.” He returned to the stage for an 11-show residency at Park MGM in September and October 2025.
Nikki Sixx, Mötley Crüe’s cofounder and bassist, spoke to USA TODAY about Neil’s condition ahead of the band’s recent tour. His comments offer a direct look at how the group has adjusted around Neil’s health:
“Vince doesn’t want to pull any punches, and we didn’t want to do any songs that maybe were too much on him. But he was like, ‘I’m in.’ I want to do ‘Red Hot.’ I love these songs. He really came to work and was sounding good pre-production. But once we hit the stage, he really came alive.”
Sixx also said Neil “just wanted to be the best he could be” and wanted to prove to himself and to fans that he was “vocally totally capable.”
Mötley Crüe wrapped The Return of the Carnival of Sins Tour on Sept. 26, 2026. The 33-date run began in Pennsylvania on July 17 and celebrated the band’s 45th anniversary as well as the 20th anniversary of their 2005 live album. The band has also announced a fourth Las Vegas residency, Carnival of Sins in Sin City, scheduled for an eight-show run between March 19 and April 3, 2027, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
Court Date and Bond Details
Andreani’s next court appearance is set for Dec. 3 in Williamson County. She was released after posting a $5,000 bond. No attorney information for Andreani has been publicly listed in the records reviewed by media outlets.
The Williamson County Sheriff’s Office has not released additional statements about the case. People and USA TODAY both contacted Neil’s representatives and the sheriff’s office; responses were not available at the time of their reports.
Domestic assault charges in Tennessee can carry penalties that range from misdemeanor to felony depending on the circumstances and prior record. The classification of Andreani’s charge beyond “domestic-related assault” has not been specified in publicly available records.
What Has Not Been Confirmed
Several key details remain unconfirmed by official sources:
- The exact cause of the argument between Neil and Andreani.
- The specific nature of the alleged property damage.
- Whether Neil sought medical attention after the alleged assault.
- Whether Andreani has retained legal counsel.
- Whether the couple is still together following the incident.
Reports from TMZ, Page Six, People, and USA TODAY rely on arrest records and a source described as an insider. No law enforcement narrative beyond the booking information has been made public. Neither Neil nor Andreani has addressed the arrest on social media or through representatives.

The Broader Picture
The arrest places a spotlight on a relationship that has unfolded largely outside the entertainment headlines for more than a decade. Andreani’s recovery from the 2025 Scottsdale plane crash and Neil’s return to performing after a 2024 stroke had positioned the couple’s recent chapter as one of recovery and stability. The Nov. 1 incident introduces a legal matter that will proceed through the Williamson County court system while Neil’s band continues its scheduled activities.
Mötley Crüe’s 2027 Las Vegas residency remains on the calendar, and Neil is not currently on tour. The band has not commented on the arrest, and no changes to the residency schedule have been announced.
