Phil Collins' eldest son Simon Collins has been arrested on suspicion of supplying class A drugs.
Simon, lead singer of rock band Sound of Contact, was also questioned by police over possession of a class B drug, according to reports.
Over the weekend Wiltshire police said: "A 37-year-old man from Devizes has been arrested for being concerned in the supply of class A drugs and for possession of a class B drug."
The musician has since been released on bail pending further enquiries, reports the Daily Mail.

He later released a statement denying the charges: "I refute the allegations presented in the press today but due to the obvious legal implications at the time, I am unable to comment further."
Simon is the son of Phil and first wife Andrea Bertorelli and half brother of actress Lily Collins.
He first became interested in music when he was just five after his dad bought him a drum kit and fans say his voice is identical to his father's.
The band released their debut album Dimensionaut in May 2013.

He is the face of terror. A ruthless leader with a twisted ideology. And the sadistic architect of a campaign of mayhem and misery. And yet, very little is known about Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Boko Haram. He operates in the shadows, leaving his underlings to orchestrate his repulsive mandates. He resurfaces every once in a while in videotaped messages to mock the impotence of the Nigerian military. And he uses his faith to recruit the impressionable and the disenfranchised to his cause. He is a religious scholar Shekau was born in Shekau village that borders Niger. He studied under a cleric and then attended Borno State College of Legal and Islamic Studies for higher studies on Islam. That’s why he’s also known as ‘Darul Tawheed,’ which translates to an expert in monotheism, or the oneness of Allah. Place of birth: Yobe State
