The former Glee star has since been released on bond and she has been picked up by her father-in-law.
Naya and Ryan's relationship has been on the rocks over the last few months, as the pair had filed for a divorce in November last year.
However, last month the Devious Maids star was believed to have filed a request to dismiss the legal paperwork as her and Ryan - who wed in 2014 after dating on and off since they first met in 2010- had moved on and their relationship was on the mend.
Speaking at the time, a source said: "She is back together with Ryan Dorsey. They want to make it work for the sake of their son."
And the trio put on a happy display as they celebrated Thanksgiving as a family.
Alongside an image of Naya with her child on the American holiday, she wrote: "Josey is the cuteeeest!! #joseyhollisdorsey #nayarivera #ryandorsey #thanksgiving. (sic)."
