In the fall of 2010, Pennington expanded his international appeal with two new series. Inside the Box with Ty Pennington, for Canada’s W Network, matches two amateur interior designers in a contest to decorate a room using only the contents of a mystery crate put together by Pennington. As part of his ongoing relationship with Great Britain’s UKTV Home, his latest series Homes for the Brave focuses on improving the homes and lives of soldiers who served in Afghanistan for the British Army.

He also serves as an ambassador for the Sears American Dream campaign. Pennington first won national attention as the quirky and creative carpenter on the groundbreaking home improvement series Trading Spaces.

Ty Pennington Arrest

While Pennington was helping out families on national television, he was clearly on a path of self-destruction. On May 5, 2007, Pennington was arrested for driving under the influence in Los Angeles, reports People. His blood-alcohol level was .14 percent, well over the legal limit of .08 percent. He apologized for his actions saying, “I made an error in judgment. We all make mistakes; however, this is about accountability. Under no circumstances should anyone consume alcohol while driving. I could have jeopardized the lives of others and I am grateful there was no accident or harm done to anyone. This was my wake-up call.

“He also apologized to his employer ABC for his behavior saying, “I also want to apologize to my fans, ABC Television and my design team for my lapse in judgment and the embarrassment I have caused.”

People later reported he plead no contest to DUI charges and received 36 months probation, fined $1,500, and was ordered to undergo a 90-day alcohol education program. After enduring embarrassing court procedures and countless headlines pointing to his mistake, Pennington said, “I’m happy to bring closure to my recent court proceedings… Drinking and driving are never acceptable. I have pleaded no contest and will abide by the court’s ruling. I hope this experience can help others as much as it has helped me.
