Hedlund Going Through Life Troubles

According to multiple sources who told People, the pair went their separate ways a "few weeks ago," after going through a rocky relationship in the past months.
An insider stated, "It's sad, and they are trying their best to co-parent. It's been hard."
The two were also able to celebrate their son's first birthday in December with a rodeo-themed party. The actress even posted a photo on Instagram with a caption that read, "Happy Birthday Rodeo! Frosting in my hair and @thebeatbuds stuck in my head. Loved every second of it ️ I love you Rhodes ️."
Apart from the split, the "Troy" star is also currently facing legal battles regarding an incident two years ago.
Hedlund Lawsuit
Hedlund is currently facing a personal perjury lawsuit filed by two women, Marina Venegas and her daughter, Jennifer Castillo, following a car crash that happened in Los Angeles on January 24, 2020.
It was mentioned in the court documents obtained by E! News that the actor-singer allegedly "passed out behind the wheel of his vehicle and ran a solid red-light at a high rate of speed."
Venegas and Castillo also claimed that Hedlund "knew he was drinking to the point of severe intoxication before getting behind the wheel of his Jeep." According to the documents, the star was then arrested and charged with DUI in the incident.
"Hedlund attempted to leave the scene of the accident without rendering aid to Plaintiffs," the suit mentioned. "But he was so intoxicated he could not get away."
