Jesse Metcalfe’s Altercation

By: Shannon Gossage

It was reported that Manning and her boyfriend, Mams Taylor, were in outside the club Social in Hollywood Thursday night around 10 p.m. when Metcalfe approached the two. Reportedly Metcalfe knows Manning but her boyfriend allegedly was not aware of that and became agitated. The two reportedly had words and then Manning's boyfriend tapped Metcalfe on the face and said, "Hey Buddy!" Metcalfe reportedly punched Taylor in the face and then Taylor punched him in the face knocking him to the ground. Metcalfe reportedly told a friend that he was "jumped" because he was talking to Manning.

Shortly after midnight Metcalfe and his friends went into the club for a jewelry party for Nicole Khristine. Manning and her beau arrived a few minutes later and Metcalfe went off the handle and put the boyfriend in a chokehold. A source said that Metcalfe seemed to be intoxicated. The two continued to fight before security guards broke it up and kicked Metcalfe out of the club. He was reportedly asked about it later by the paparazzi and said, "What are you talking about? A fight? No."

Metcalfe was reportedly spotted hanging out that night at Villa with some friends and enjoying a few drinks. He was later spotted at GOA as well. Metcalfe checked into a rehabilitation facility to deal with "alcohol issues." His rep said at the time, "He realized he had a problem and was anxious to deal with it immediately." Seems maybe he might be up to his old tricks again.
