She has struggled with bulimia in the past due to the pressure to be thin stemming from appearing alongside very thin co-stars on the show The Hills. In a 2007 US Magazine interview, Pratt revealed previous substance abuse problems and discussed an incident in which she shoplifted $1,300 worth of merchandise from a Neiman Marcus in Honolulu in 2006, whilst working as a production assistant on ABC’s "LOST".
On October 18, 2009, Pratt was arrested in Hollywood, California, on suspicion of drunk driving and booked into jail in Van Nuys. She took two breathalyzer tests, first blowing 0.08, then blowing 0.09. The legal limit in California is 0.08. She was released several hours later after posting a USD $5,000 bail.[Wikipedia]
