“Love After Lockup” star Derek Warner, who spent almost a decade behind bars, was recently arrested for felonious assault and it’s alleged his girlfriend Monique Robinson, posted a $10,000 bond for him to be released. Also, Derek claims his arrest stems from old 2021 charges and it's nothing new. More inside… If you’re not a fan of “Love After Lockup,” let us catch you up real quick. Monique Robinson and Derek Warner have gained a lot of attention as the stars of the newest season of WEtv’s “Love After Lockup.” Despite their vastly different appearances, the two met while Derek was serving a nine-year sentence in prison and developed a relationship through letters. They first started conversing when he had two years left on his sentence, which was right at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Their story of finding love after incarceration has captured the interest of viewers, who tune in every week to see how they navigate their relationship. Monique is a plus-size woman, while Derek is a small man with a big personality, leading to some criticism about their size difference. Recently, the couple appeared on Angela Yee's new show “Way Up” to discuss their relationship and how the public has reacted to their unique dynamic. Monique and Derek have been embroiled in constant drama since appearing on the reality series. Whether they were arguing with each other or getting into conflicts with Derek's sisters, Elizabeth (who is trans) and Aubryanna, it seems like drama has been the norm for them. It was revealed in an interview with TV producer Carlos King that Derek cheated on Monique approximately 10 times since being home from his sentence. Derek revealed he gave in to temptation due to their long-distance relationship. (Mo lives in Illinois and Derek lives in Ohio). However, they have decided to work through their issues and stay together. Then....an arrest! Yesterday, Derek found himself back behind bars!
