{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Former "Bachelorette" star Chad Johnson has been hospitalized following his arrest for domestic violence.
Us Weekly reported police officers performed a welfare check on Johnson, 32, on Saturday morning before taking him to the hospital because they felt he was a danger to himself.
The welfare check came after multiple disturbing posts made on Instagram, which included a photo of rope tied across his door and a video of himself saying "I have no choice," the outlet reports. Both posts no longer exist.

"I'm okay. Things are fine," he wrote, as shown in images obtained by E! News. "I love you. You'll be great. Life is going to be okay. Forgive yourself. Let go."

"I was taken to jail for that and while she was talking to [the police], she told them about how I had thrown her phone, so that was the robbery issue," Johnson said in the video. "Now, there was never any domestic abuse of any kind. I have never laid hands on a woman any time in my entire life."
