Three years after Zachery Ty Bryan’s domestic violence arrest, the “Home Improvement” alum is breaking his silence.

The actor claimed in a Hollywood Reporter interview published Thursday that the incident with partner Johnnie Faye Cartwright “got blown out of proportion,” alleging they “didn’t even really get that physical.”

The 41-year-old added, “We got really loud. We were screaming and because we were in a townhome that had [thin walls], everybody could hear.

“At the end of the day, [the police] throw a bunch of counts at you because they ultimately want you to plead to something,” Bryan continued. “I could’ve fought it … but that’s more stress and drama.”

The “True Heart” star, who agreed to take a deal and plead guilty to menacing and fourth-degree assault in February 2021, told the outlet he “got two misdemeanors and called it a day.”
