The former TV personality, 43, was and booked for assaulting a family or household member after Michael claimed she threw a knife at him, according to court documents obtained by the Daily Mail.
In the stark image, Major grimaced at the camera, her tousled, unevenly dyed hair a far cry from her once polished public appearances.
The arrest has since escalated into a legal and personal crisis, with Major - who has been arrested eight times over the past 15 years - appearing in court for her arraignment on Thursday.
Her lawyer told the court she could be left with nowhere to live, as a protective order barring contact with Michael - father of her two children - has effectively cut off her current housing situation, per TMZ.
The attorney added that Major is currently unemployed and struggling financially, warning she may be forced to rely on a shelter or temporary accommodation as the case unfolds.

'I'm thankful for my early release and being reunited with my boys,' Lohan told TMZ after he was freed. 'This should have never happened. It was wrong!
'As usual, there's a lot more to the story than what’s been reported. I'm just happy to be free and I'm sorry for the negative press it has caused my family.'
Michael and Major, a one-time entertainment reporter, exchanged vows in October 2014 in Hillsboro Beach, Florida, but Lindsay did not attend the nuptials.
The pair split in September of 2018 when Major told a Florida court that the marital union had been 'irretrievably broken,' as she asked for primary custody of their sons in addition to child support and alimony.
While the troubled tandem remain legally married, a source told TMZ in 2024 that 'they've been estranged for a few years now.'
