Zachery Ty Bryan, known for his role in the TV show “Home Improvement,” downplayed a 2020 altercation with his then-secret girlfriend, Johnnie Faye Cartwright. Bryan, who was married at the time, was arrested and charged with several offenses including domestic violence. However, most charges were dropped, and Bryan chose to plead guilty to two misdemeanors.
In a recent interview, Bryan stated that the incident was blown out of proportion and that the physicality was minimal. He explained that they were loud and screaming due to the thin walls in their townhome. He attributed Cartwright’s upset to his personal situation at the time.
Bryan mentioned that the police tend to throw multiple charges at individuals to encourage them to plead guilty to something. He saw fighting the charges as more stress and drama, so he decided to accept the two misdemeanors.
According to the police report, Bryan claimed that Cartwright attacked him and accused her of setting him up to ruin his career. He alleged that Cartwright mentioned his fame during a call to the police. Bryan is known for his role as Brad Taylor in “Home Improvement.”
Bryan regarded the arrest as a wake-up call and a learning experience, expressing gratitude for the lessons it taught him. He confirmed that he and Cartwright are still in a relationship and have three children together.
Following the tumultuous year, Bryan has been attending self-management and recovery training classes to address drinking issues. He acknowledged having a problem with alcohol but stopped short of labeling himself as an alcoholic. Bryan now maintains a sober lifestyle to avoid problems associated with drinking.
Bryan has had multiple DUI arrests over the years, starting from 2004. He recognized that his fame from “Home Improvement” allowed him access to nightclubs at a young age but has since disengaged from that lifestyle.
Tim Allen, who played Bryan’s father on “Home Improvement,” commented on his former co-star’s situation and expressed confusion about what has been going on. Allen believes that people can change and go through their own processes, but he does not have control over their actions.
Bryan also talked about his transition from acting to producing. He found it difficult to find work after “Home Improvement” due to a stigma against TV actors. However, he persevered and eventually found success as a producer. Bryan mentioned that he felt he had more control over his career in producing compared to acting, where he was heavily reliant on others.
Overall, Bryan reflected on his past experiences, including the altercation with Cartwright, and emphasized the lessons he has learned and the positive changes he has made in his life.
