A previous planned reunion between the stars of the classic show Dukes of Hazzard is no longer happening.
According to Taste of Country, both of the lead actors from the original show are going through some legal trouble.
John Schneider, who played Bo Duke, is currently facing up to three months in jail. His ex-wife, Elvira, claims he owes her almost $185,000 in back spousal support and legal fees. While the actor said that a series financial misfortunes have prevented him from paying, the excuse didn’t work. The courts found Schneider in contempt of repeated non-payment and he will receive his sentence this month.
On top of that, Tom Wopat, who portrayed Luke Duke, is also in deep water. Back in August of last year, he was arrested for indecent assault against an underage girl and drug possession while working on a production of 42nd Street. He later left the production, saying he was going to take time to work on his substance abuse problem.
There’s currently no word on if the Dukes of Hazzard reunion will ever occur now.
