The former MLB All-Star Royce Clayton was detained by Ventura County sheriff’s deputies on Sunday. According to the LA Times, Clayton was booked under the suspicion of driving under the influence.

Clayton testified last month in the case of Rebecca Grossman, a socialite of Hidden Hills, who is accused of second-degree murder, vehicular manslaughter and hit-and-run for the deaths of two boys, aged 11 and 8, at a Westlake Village (California) crosswalk in September 2020.

Clayton, the Oaks Christian School's baseball coach in Westlake Village, is married to Samantha Davies.

Davies, who was born on Sept. 20, 1979, is a professional athlete from Birmingham, England. She had an impressive career in sprinting, participating in the women's 200 meters and 4x100-meter relay at the 2000 Sydney Summer Olympics.

Davies and Clayton met in 2000. They tied the knot the following year and have been married ever since. The couple has four children: two daughters, named Imani and Niya, and two sons, named Royce Jr. and Elijah.

Davies is a sprint coach at Pepperdine University.

According to Net Worth Post, Clayton's net worth is estimated to be $13 million. His wife, Samantha Davies, has a net worth ranging from $1 million to $5 million, according to CelebsAge Wiki.
