Alaia Baldwin Aronow, the sister of model Hailey Bieber, has been charged with assault and battery after an incident at a Savannah, Georgia nightclub in which she allegedly pulled out a used tampon and threw it at a bartender. The incident occurred nearly two years ago, but Aronow is now facing four criminal misdemeanor charges and could potentially face prison time.

Why it matters

The case highlights issues around public intoxication, entitlement, and the treatment of service industry workers. Aronow's actions, if proven, could be seen as an assault and a violation of health codes, raising questions about accountability for celebrities and public figures.

The details

According to reports, Aronow was at the nightclub when she requested to use the employee-only bathroom to change her tampon and potentially vomit. When staff directed her to the public restroom instead, Aronow allegedly became irate, pulling out the used tampon and throwing it at a bartender. She then reportedly got into a physical altercation with two bouncers who tried to remove her from the premises.

  • The incident occurred on a cold night in Savannah, Georgia in 2024.
  • Aronow was charged with assault and battery nearly two years later, in early 2026.
