Vanilla Ice has been released from jail after being arrested for allegedly pushing his wife.
The rapper, real name Robert Van Winkle, was held on Thursday night (April 10) after a domestic incident at the couple's Florida home.
According to the BBC, Van Winkle's wife called emergency services saying she has been kicked and hit during an argument.
However, she later told police that the rapper had only pushed her.
He denied pushing her, but was charged with simple domestic battery.
He was freed yesterday, though his agent, Tommy Quon, said that since he had not heard about the arrest, he could not comment.
