The woman who made the report allegedly called Margera her “husband,” but not Nikki Boyd, Margera’s estranged wife, according to a report made by TMZ. Boyd recently filed for separation donkey The star, accompanied by his attorney, David Glass, said the reason for the separation at this time is because Margera has been under the influence while watching their child. Margera has a long and complicated history when it comes to alcohol abuse and has been in and out of hospitals, prisons and rehab for over a decade due to his addiction.
Margera reportedly posted $50,000 bail the day after his arrest and was released.
