Jessica McClure Morales, the woman who rose to global prominence as “Baby Jessica” in 1987, released a cryptic social media post after she was arrested following an alleged domestic disturbance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Note to self: Happiness is letting go of what you assume your life is supposed to be like right now, and sincerely appreciating it for everything that it is,” Morales, now 40, wrote in a\u00a0Monday Facebook post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“So, relax. Reset. You are enough. You have enough. You do enough. Breathe deep. Let go, and just live right now.”<\/p>\n

\u2018BABY JESSICA\u2019 ARRESTED IN TEXAS FOLLOWING ALLEGED DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The now mom of two rose to prominence when, at 18 months old, she was rescued after falling into a eight-inch diameter well pipe in Midland, Texas<\/a>, on Oct. 14, 1987.<\/p>\n

Morales was taken into custody Saturday night by the Midland County Sheriff’s Office at her home in Midland County, according to KMID\/KPEJ,<\/u><\/a> citing arrest records.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Morales was reportedly taken into custody at the scene and charged with assault causing bodily injury involving family violence. She was later released from the Midland County Detention Center after posting bond.<\/p>\n

GOT A TIP?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Further details about the alleged incident were not immediately available and the Midland County Sheriff’s Office did not respond to multiple requests for comment from Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

When she was just 18 months old, Morales fell 22 feet down a well in her aunt’s backyard in Midland, Texas.<\/p>\n

The following rescue mission led to Morales being known as “Baby Jessica<\/a>,” and the nation watched in awe as first responders drilled a parallel shaft and horizontal tunnel through rock to access her location, KMID\/KPEJ reported.<\/p>\n

Nearly 60 hours after she fell in, Morales was pulled out and safely rescued. When the baby was rescued, her head was bandaged, and she was covered with dirt and bruises.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A poll taken by The Pew Research Center for the People and the Press in 1997 that measured coverage of Princess Diana<\/a>‘s death earlier that year found that in the previous decade, only Jessica’s rescue rivaled the Paris car crash in worldwide attention.<\/p>\n

Chip McClure, Morales’ father, remembered being “absolutely floored” by the media coverage<\/a> once the family got to the hospital with her.<\/p>\n

Then-Vice President George Bush and his wife, Barbara, former Midland residents, visited. President Ronald Reagan<\/a> called.\u00a0<\/p>\n
