Former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg has been arrested over alleged stalking and a breach of bail conditions.
The 32-year-old, who currently plays for French team Montpellier, was due to appear at a court in the Borders this week to stand trial over domestic abuse charges.
Police Scotland said: “A 32-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with stalking offences and breach of bail conditions.”
They added that he was due to appear at Jedburgh Sheriff Court and a report would be submitted to the procurator fiscal.
The arrest came ahead of a domestic abuse trial which includes a charge of stalking and controlling behaviour towards his wife over a seven-year period. Mr Hogg denies the charges.
He previously pled not guilty to a charge of stalking and also an offence under section one of the Domestic Abuse Scotland Act relating to his behaviour towards his wife.
He was arrested in February at her home for allegedly causing her fear and alarm.
He is facing a number of allegations, including that he acted aggressively to his wife, accused her of infidelity, repeatedly tracked her movements and monitored her communication with others over several years.
The father-of-four unexpectedly retired from the sport last summer and was awarded an MBE in the 2024 New Year Honours for services to rugby union.
He has since come out of retirement to sign a two-year contract with Montpellier.
