Kate DeAraugo - Maybe Tonight

According to a report in the Shepparton News, the former household name, 31, was twice caught with methamphetamine over a five day period.

The star was allegedly found with .43 grams of ice, and five days later was found with ‘a trafficable quantity’ of the drug, as well as a large knife and a tomahawk.

A drugs test allegedly found she was driving under the influence of the drug. According to the Shepparton News, the matter has been adjourned until October 4, and will be heard at Bendigo Magistrates’ Court.
