MIAMI — Peter Thomas has resolved issues that led to his arrest in Miami last week.
The ex-husband of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Cynthia Bailey was arrested Friday after he got off a plane from Jamaica to Miami. He reportedly had an outstanding warrant in Louisiana, where he allegedly wrote a check for $4,000 that bounced.
"It was an unfortunate misunderstanding. There was no intent on Mr. Thomas part to not pay," Thomas' attorney, Keith Doley, told E! News. "There was a misunderstanding about a performance that didn't happen. It's all been resolved."
E! News reported that Thomas was released Wednesday.
Doley said he delivered a $4,000 check on behalf of his client and said St. John the Baptist Parish's district attorney will not be pursuing charges.
Soon after his release, Thomas took to Instagram with a message to his followers from his Miami residence.
“Hey Instagram world. I can not sleep because I’m still (expletive) up over the last six days,” Thomas said. “But you know what? Feels so blessed to be in my bed tonight. That I can get up and go to the shower, restroom, the refrigerator, the balcony to go look outside, and I don’t have to ask permission to.”
Thomas, a businessman who owns multiple clubs in Charlotte, North Carolina and one in Miami, said he would speak more about the incident later on.
