Grace Kelley, the daughter of singer Wynonna Judd, has been charged with soliciting prostitution following her arrest in Alabama on April 5, 2024. Initially, she was booked on two charges: indecent exposure and obstructing governmental operations. The indecent exposure charge stems from an incident where she allegedly exposed her breasts and lower body at a busy intersection of Interstate 65 and Highway 14 in Millbrook, Alabama. The obstructing governmental operations charge was added due to her refusal to cooperate with police when detained.
The soliciting prostitution charge was added after it was reported that Kelley was holding a sign that read “Ride for a Ride” while displaying herself in a state of undress, with drivers passing by. Local police chief P.K. Johnson described her as “not appropriately dressed” and noted that she was argumentative and refused to cooperate with officers.

Grace Kelley, who is a mother to a young daughter, has her first court date set for April 25, 2024. She does not have a lawyer on file who could speak on her behalf.
Kelley’s legal history includes several incidents. In 2016, she was arrested for possession of meth and was ordered to serve 30 days in jail and then attend a court-mandated drug recovery program. However, she left the program before completion and was subsequently sentenced to serve eight years at the West Tennessee State Penitentiary. In 2018, she was sentenced to eight years in prison for violating her probation by leaving a court-mandated drug recovery program. She was released from jail in December 2022 but was arrested again in May 2023 on charges of violating an order of protection and restraining order and violating parole. She was sent back to jail and released again in October 2023.
During a temporary leave of absence from jail in March 2022, Kelley gave birth to her daughter, Kaliyah Chanel. Wynonna Judd has spoken about her daughter, expressing pride in her and acknowledging her as the first to correct her when she gets too big for her britches.
The charges against Grace Kelley highlight the complexities of her legal and personal life, which have been intertwined with her family’s public image. Her arrest and subsequent charges have sparked public attention and discussion about the challenges faced by individuals with public figures as parents, the impact of substance abuse, and the legal consequences of actions that may seem trivial to some but carry significant legal implications.
