Jack Tweed arrested on suspicion of affray after nightclub brawl in Essex
Arrested: Jack Tweed has been questioned after a nightclub brawl earlier this week
Jade Goody's widower Jack Tweed has been arrested following a nightclub brawl.
The 23-year-old was questioned yesterday on suspicion of affray after attending a police station in Ilford, east London.
It followed an altercation at a nightclub in Chigwell, Essex, earlier this week which reportedly left one man with a black eye and a swollen face.
Police contacted Tweed after a brawl outside the Deuces Bar and Lounge, in Chigwell, Essex, in the early hours of Monday morning.
His friend Mark Wright, 23, who appears in reality TV programme The Only Way Is Essex, was arrested at the scene with his younger brother Lewis, 20.
A spokesman for Wright said he stepped in to 'protect his nightclub' after going outside when a scuffle broke out.
A 21-year-old builder suffered a black eye and bruised face during the punch-up. He declined medical treatment.
According to The Sun, Tweed arrived with his solicitor at Ilford police station yesterday afternoon and spent several hours inside.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: 'A 23-year-old man attended an east London police station by appointment and was arrested on suspicion of affray.'
Tweed was released on bail until later this month.
He married Big Brother star Goody, 27, shortly before she lost her battle against cervical cancer in March 2009.
And this is not the first time he has been in trouble with the law.
He served four months of an 18 month jail term in September 2008 for ABH after he attacked a 16-year-old with a golf club but in April 2009 he returned to jail for three months after being found guilty of attacking a cab driver.
That September, he was charged with rape after a 19-year-old woman claimed that he and another man had raped her in his flat but he was found not guilty.
