According to the site, an LAPD public relations officer, "Shouhed was charged with corporal harm to a spouse or cohabitant, which is a felony, according to the sheriff's department." His accused victim has yet to be identified. According to Page Six, Shouhed's attorney, Alex Kessel said that his client rejects all of the charges.
Shouhed shared a series of cryptic now-deleted Instagram Stories, which read, “Your life is your responsibility. Your success is your responsibility. Your failure is your responsibility. Your reaction is your responsibility. Your behavior is your responsibility.”
Shouhed appeared to still be following his fiancée, Paulina Ben-Cohen, on Instagram as of now and she may or may not have been involved in the domestic violence event. Shouhed revealed his engagement to Paulina Ben-Cohen during the Shahs of Sunset season 9 reunion, which premiered last August.
Following a cheating-sexting incident, the pair announced their engagement in August 2021. Shouhed was accused of sending racy texts to another woman while dating Ben-Cohen, and after rejecting the allegations for a long time, he eventually admitted it in May 2021.
“We were going through COVID, being on lockdown, and I let the anxiousness of going through that and just being bored allow me to do things I shouldn’t have done,” he stated to E! News.
“Looking back, I feel really stupid for allowing myself to engage in that conversation, even though those text messages were for a few hours and one day that those messages happened, reliving it now feels like … like it was going on for a long period of time.”
Ben-Cohen has two children from a prior marriage, and Shouhed has two children from a previous marriage as well. Shouhed and his ex-wife, Jessica Parido, divorced in 2015, only eight months after they married. Although Shouhed first denied cheating on Parido, he later admitted it on a Shahs episode in 2016.
