Jeff Hardy has had his issues with the law in the past, and last year while he was taking time off from WWE due to injury he was arrested for DUI.
The former WWE Champion has been opening up about his past struggles recently, and during a recent episode of WWE Chronicle he got brutally honest about his family’s reaction to the arrest.
According to Jeff Hardy, he came home to find a stack of chairs blocking the door to his home after he was arrested.
“Yeah, the biggest moment was after I was bailed out on October the 3rd, 2019. I couldn’t believe I had gotten myself in trouble. When I got back to my front door, they had stacked up like a bunch of chairs and stuff, like they didn’t want me home. That really, really, hurt. That broke my heart for sure. It’s something that I got to hold on to, to remind myself of how bad it can be.”
Hardy also noted that at the time he was drinking so much alcohol that he would consistently black out.
“In October of 2019, I was drinking crazy amounts of alcohol and just blacking out all the time. It was just terrifying. There was just one time you know, I had fallen asleep on the back porch near my four-year-old, who brought a pillow and a blanket out there. The next morning, I woke up when the sun was coming up on our back porch, all sore from not sleeping in a bed. When I first saw her that morning, she told me, ‘I helped you out, dad. You’re still my best friend, even when you’re drunk.”
