Joanne was taken into custody in Portland, Oregon on Wednesday afternoon and is apparently being held on charges of drunk driving, reports TMZ.
A booking sheet for the incident lists "Probation violation - driving under [influence] of [intoxication]" as the reason for the arrest.
Former Cold Case actor Daniel, who is the younger brother of Alec Baldwin, filed for divorce from Joanne on Wednesday after four years of marriage.
He cited her alleged drug and alcohol addictions as the reason for the split.
"Due to recent events in our home and for the safety of my children and myself, I have made this decision," Baldwin said in a statement. "I have had my share of problems with drugs and alcohol many years ago and know first hand how difficult a position she is in."
Daniel and Joanne married in 2007 and are parents to daughters Avis Ann and Finley Rae Martineau.
