The husband of Home and Away star Kate Ritchie had twice been convicted of drink driving before his most recent alleged offence.
Stuart Webb was allegedly caught running a red light in Sydney's eastern suburbs on March 26 this year, before blowing 0.083 in a roadside breath test.
Webb, an ex-NRL player who married TV soap star Ritchie in 2010, was charged with drink driving and driving while suspended, and issued a court attendance notice.
While court documents stated this was Webb's first offence, Daily Mail Australia can reveal the father-of-one has a track record of drink driving - having been found guilty in 2012 and 2017.
