THE CHALLENGE star Robin Hibbard has been arrested for possession of heroin and lost custody of her children, as she admitted to being homeless while begging fans for help.
Robin, 42, starred on The Real World: San Diego in 2004 and has appeared on various seasons of The Challenge from 2004 to 2012.

In a Florida Sheriff’s report obtained by The Sun, Robin was arrested on August 19, 2019, and charged with possession of heroin and possession of a controlled substance.
On July 6, 2019, police responded to a woman laying on top of a white artificial Christmas tree and grasping onto a blue backpack while sleeping in a Wawa parking lot.
Robin was wearing jean shorts and a black sports bra.
When they woke her up, they noticed a “capped syringe popping out of the top of her sports bra.”
The police report read: “The defendant realized the syringe was sticking out and attempted to conceal it by pushing it down her bra between her cleavage. Upon doing so, the syringe popped out the bottom of her bra.
“Again, the defendant attempted to conceal the syringe by pushing it up into her sports bra. The syringe popped back out of the top of her sports bra. Officer Barrett then asked the Defendant to just hand him the syringe. The defendant then reached down in to her bra, retrieved the syringe and handed it to Officer Barrett.”
Robin told officers she is “diabetic,” but couldn’t answer when asked what medicine she takes.
She was detained in handcuffs because of her “uncooperative behavior and her condition.”
The former reality star gave the officers permission to search her bag.
The report read: “Located within a medium sized front pocket of the backpack was a clear glass container with a flower lid. Inside the container was a white powder substance, a three peach colored pills with an unidentifiable imprint on them.”
Because of the officer’s “defective” drug testing kits on site, they released her.
It was later determined in laboratory results that the substances were heroin and izolam, resulting in her arrest weeks later.
Her bond was set at $4,000 and she was bailed out on September 5, 2019.
According to court papers, she pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Robin requested a public defender, as she cited her income as “zero” and wrote that she has two dependent children.
She pleaded guilty to both charges and was sentenced to 30 days in county jail.
In September 2021, Robin still hadn’t paid court fees in the amount of $684 and it was sent to a collection agency in December of the same year.
While this case was pending, Robin was arrested on October 17, 2019 for occupying a building in violation of an order to vacate and possession of drugs without a prescription.
In the Sheriff’s report, officers found Robin in the backyard of a building that had a “no trespassing” sign.
The report read: “A search of her property revealed 15 blue oval pills marked ‘213.’ Per drugs.com, the pills are a prescription drug known as sertraline hydrochloride 50 mg which she was in possession of without a prescription.”
According to Florida courts, the outcome of the case is “adjudication withheld,” meaning she was not convicted, but may receive a special sentence, such as probation.
Then on January 27, 2020, she was arrested for trespassing and resisting without violence at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino.
According to the Sheriff’s report, cops were called because Robin allegedly “caused a disturbance and refused to leave” after being told to by security.
When officers told her to leave via the front entrance of the casino, she “refused” and tried to go through an emergency exit.
The report read when officers attempted to arrest her, the “defendant resisted by pulling away from officers while placing handcuffs.”
She was ordered to have no contact with the Hard Rock casino. She was not prosecuted for the charges.
In the mugshots from the three arrests obtained by The Sun, Robin appeared unrecognizable and disheveled.
In July 2019, two of Robin’s family members filed for custody of her child.
According to the Florida court docket, in November 2019, the family members were awarded temporary custody of children from Robyn and her husband, Bryan.
Robin has been sparking concern on Facebook in recent months.
The Ashley’s Reality Roundup reported that on January 23, Robin wrote: “I really need a friend anyone willing to let me stay the night. I’ve been walking around trying to stay sober and safe but I have no where to lay [my] head safely.”
An hour later, another status read: “Help.”
Another status read: “Hey please anyone out there.”
Robin has also posted alarming selfies.
The Ashley also reported on her ex-boyfriend and former The Challenge star Mark Long’s appearance on Johnny Bananas‘ podcast Death, Taxes and Bananas.
Mark and Robin dated in 2004 on Battle of the Sexes II and were partners on Battle of the Exes in 2014.
He said: “I wanna say this because it’s sad, I’ve been getting a lot of messages about Robin and I wanted to speak on that a little bit. She’s in a bad place; I think the addiction has really taken a hold of her in a terrible way.
“I know a lot of people have tried to reach out, including her parents and her husband. I hope someone can get to her and convince her to get help. I know deep down she probably wants it but it breaks my heart knowing that she’s in such a bad place.”
