Something was brewing outside Kim Delaney's apartment late Sunday night, and it wasn't just a neighborhood noise complaint. By the time deputies arrived, multiple 911 calls had already been placed, and the situation was escalating fast.

According to People, Delaney's husband, James Morgan, was arrested by the Marina Del Rey Sheriff's Office just before midnight on February 8, 2026.

Morgan, 55, was booked in the early hours of February 9, 2026, and is due in court on Tuesday, February 10, 2026.

What Sparked the Late-Night Response

A representative for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office told the outlet that deputies responded to "at least three calls for service" around 10:37 p.m.

The calls were reportedly about "a noise complaint and a verbal disturbance in a public area" outside the apartment building where Morgan and Delaney, 64, live.

But here's where things took a turn. Authorities said Morgan's alleged "refusal to cooperate with the investigation," combined with the flurry of 911 calls, led to his arrest for allegedly obstructing police.

According to the booking record obtained by the outlet, Morgan was booked on a misdemeanor charge. "He was cited and released," the spokesperson added.

The "Nightmares & Dreamscapes: From the Stories of Stephen King" actress was also released from custody that same day without a formal criminal complaint, according to court records reviewed by the publication.

A Relationship Already Under the Microscope

If this all feels eerily familiar, you're not alone. Just months ago, Delaney and Morgan made headlines for a separate domestic incident that raised eyebrows.

In April 2025, TMZ reported that Delaney was arrested for assault likely to cause great bodily injury against Morgan, who was also arrested for misdemeanor domestic violence.

Police alleged the couple had been fighting for two days before their arrests. According to the report, Delaney first called the police on Friday night to make a domestic violence complaint against Morgan.

Authorities said Morgan left the home and returned Saturday morning, prompting another call. Deputies claimed Morgan told them Delaney tried to hit him with her car and showed video of the alleged incident, TMZ reported.

Despite the dramatic allegations, prosecutors declined to file charges against either of them after Delaney appeared in court that Tuesday morning.

No charges. No case. And just days later, Delaney appeared to send a very public message.

A Very Public Show of Love

For Morgan's 55th birthday, Delaney reportedly posted a glowing tribute on social media. "Birthday Boy, 55!!!!! Your wife loves you, my guy!" she wrote on her social media, adding Chris Stapleton's "Joy of My Life," according to the outlet.

The affectionate post came only days after the alleged altercation, leaving fans openly confused about what was really going on behind the scenes.

Delaney has not publicly addressed February 8, 2026's arrest.

From Beach Vibes to Anniversary Bliss

For years, Delaney's Instagram painted a picture of a romance straight out of a coastal daydream. In a November 10, 2021, post captioned, "Last of summer #vibes 🏖," the couple leaned into each other on a breezy beach, smiling against rolling waves.

A December 2, 2022, birthday celebration showed the pair intertwined in front of a holiday-lit fireplace. "Beautiful Birthday at @chefvolas decorations by his mama. Thank you all. Very special. So fun, appreciate it! 🎂💚," she wrote.

By February 3, 2023, it was "A pretty #brunch in Santa Monica. #cali #santamonica #hubby #beautifulday," as they embraced against a glowing sunset skyline.

And on October 11, 2023, Delaney celebrated their anniversary, gushing, "Happy Anniversary to #Mybestfriend! #Mysoulmate! #Myheart! #Myworld! Beyond…! 💚💋"

In October 2024, she reportedly celebrated their second wedding anniversary with another loved-up selfie on Instagram with her husband. "A beautiful 2nd wedding anniversary!!! Great memories! I love you, hubby," She wrote in the caption, signing it, "your wife for life."

But something else is noticeable. Delaney reportedly has not shared any additional photos with Morgan since May 2025. Delaney, who also appeared on "All My Children" in the 1980s, tied the knot with Morgan in 2022.

The Unanswered Question

For now, officials are calling it a noise complaint that turned into an obstruction arrest. But given the couple's recent history of explosive allegations, public reconciliations, and zero filed charges, the latest incident only deepens the mystery surrounding their marriage.

Delaney, best known for her roles on "NYPD Blue" and "All My Children," has remained silent. And as Morgan awaits his court date, one thing is clear: this story may not be over just yet.
