Colleen Zenk’s Third DUI Arrest

This marks Zenk’s third DUI charge since 2010. This past May, she was arrested in Naples, Florida, for a “DUI resulting in damage to property or person of another, and DUI with a blood alcohol level of 0.15 or higher, which is above the legal limit of 0.08.”

According to reports from the Collier County Sheriff’s and County Clerk’s office, she was booked on May 15 of this year at 7:35 p.m., with two charges of misdemeanor, a $1,000 bond for each.

A witness revealed to police that the actress had backed out of a handicap parking spot and hit another vehicle; however, she left the scene and was then stopped.

When she stepped out of her vehicle when stopped by police, Zenk had stumbled. She did admit to the officers that she had drunk two glasses of wine at Bar Tulia.

She agreed to field sobriety tests and had a hard time balancing herself (as well as other tasks), so she was arrested.

In addition, two breath samples were collected, with one returning at 0.206 BAC and the other at 0.192 BAC.

She pleaded “not guilty” to the charges. Her pre-trial will commence on July 29.

Zenk was on ATWT for over three decades, entering the Barbara role in September 1978 until the show’s finale in September 2010.

She also played villainess Jordan on The Young and the Restless from November 2023 to January 2025.
