At the event, Ortiz-Magro, 33, spoke warmly of Harley in an interview withE! News, noting that the two “have a strong love for each other.”
“They’re going to show what they want to show, and they’re going to portray you the way that they want to portray you,” he continued. “But at the end of the day you’ve got to realize it’s a show, its television, it’s for ratings and it’s a job. I do it because I do love entertaining people, and I love the fact that people love the show, but I do it for other people. I do it to make television and that’s what we all do. And we know what we’re doing at the end of the day, and we’re still being real, and it’s not produced. But we know at this point what to do and what people like.”
News of Ortiz-Magro’s arrest broke when a local Fox reporter in L.A. tweeted a photo of the reality star, shirtless and in handcuffs on a stretcher.
A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to PEOPLE that authorities responded to a battery report at around 2:40 a.m.
“The victim and suspect were involved in some kind of physical altercation,” said the spokesperson. “Officers did have to use a taser on the suspect in which a minor use of force occurred. There was no further incident.”
