Michelle Branch has spoken about the dropped domestic assault charges brought against her, as well as her now-paused divorce from The Black Keys’ Patrick Carney, in an interview on The Tamron Hall Show.The episode is set to air later today (September 15) but a preview sees Branch talking about being arrested on domestic assault charges.

Back in August, Branch told police officers called to her home that she had slapped Carney in the face “one or two times”. Two weeks later, the case was dismissed at the request of the state.“I don’t condone violence,” Branch told Hall. “What went down was so unfortunate.
