Some fans were bummed out about the nature of Andrew’s tweets, with one Twitter user writing: “Damn Andrew!!! This is so disappointing. I never would’ve pinned him to have such a misogynistic and inappropriate mindset.”

Was Andrew Spencer arrested?
Back in July 2018, Andrew, who was 23 years old at the time, was arrested on alcohol-related charges in Winona, Minnesota; He faced two counts of Fourth Degree DWI.
In court, he pled guilty to blowing a higher alcohol level than the state minimum in Minnesota.
In exchange for his guilty plea, all other charges were dropped against him.
For pleading guilty, Andrew was sentenced to unsupervised probation for one year and had to pay over $500 in fines.
The reality star took responsibility for his behavior at the time, and in a statement obtained by In Touch, he said:
“I do not dispute the test result. I also acknowledge that I have been advised as to the enhanceable nature of the offense to which I am pleading guilty, and I understand that future offenses could be charged more severely as a result of my conviction for this offense,”
This was not Andrew’s only alcohol-related charge, however.
In 2014, he was fined $185 by cops for consuming alcohol underage.
