Former star continues to find himself in legal trouble after being arrested at least twice while still on probation for his February 2024 arrest for fentanyl possession, according to Starcasm. 

The outlet reports that Max, who previously appeared on ‘Unexpected’ with ex and baby mama , was arrested on at least two occasions since his February 2024 arrest– once for theft and another time for fentanyl possession– jeopardizing the 25-year-old’s probation, which began in April 2024. 

Court documents regarding Max’s November arrest allege that the former TLC star possessed or used fentanyl and alprazolam on or about November 25, 2024, and that he “did use or possess with intent to use foil, a straw, and a baggie” in order to use said drugs. 

The November incident resulted in Max being charged with Possession or Use of Narcotic Drugs, Possession or Use of Dangerous Drugs, and Possession or Use of Drug Paraphernalia. (The first two charges are Class 4 felonies, while the third is a Class 6 felony.) 

Max was also arrested for theft while on probation– a Class 1 misdemeanor– stemming from an incident that allegedly occurred less than two weeks after his February 2024 arrest for drug possession. 

According to Starcasm, multiple petitions have been filed in 2025 to revoke Max’s probation, most recently on June 3, at which point a warrant was also issued for his arrest. He reportedly appeared in court this week for a status conference, during which the judge overseeing the case denied Max’s attorney’s motion to quash the warrant and scheduled Max’s next hearing for July 21. Meanwhile, it was noted in the latest docket entry from Max’s theft case on July 7 that there had been a “failure to appear on criminal offense” and that a “warrant of arrest” was issued, as well as a “suspension of operation privilege ordered.” 

As previously told you, Max was released from the slammer in January 2021 after serving more than three months for a 2018 incident in which he stole credit cards and casino vouchers from his friend’s grandmother while she was sleeping. He was also arrested in late 2019 for domestic violence and again in early 2020 for the same thing. 

While Max has continued to find himself in legal trouble over the years, it appears that the same cannot be said for his presence in his seven-year-old daughter Ava’s life. (Chloe previously had a restraining order against Max, barring him from being around both her and Ava.) 

Last week, Max took to his Instagram Story to post a birthday tribute for Ava, whom he shares with Chloe, in which he acknowledged that he has not “been able to be there” with her “these past couple of years.” 

“ … not a day has gone by that I haven’t thought about you or missed you deeply,” he wrote. “ … My greatest wish is to be part of your birthdays – and every part of your life – from here on.”
