Westworld actress Evan Rachel Wood spoke about the abuse by her former partner Marilyn Manson. They met for about two years, from December 2006 to October 2008. They later resumed their relationship and got engaged in January 2010, but after six months they canceled the engagement.
When Wood started dating Manson, she was only 19. “He started courting me when I was a teenager and bullied me terribly for years. He brainwashed me and made me obey him. I'm tired of living in fear, being afraid of revenge, slander, or blackmail. I am writing this to expose this dangerous man before he destroys another life, ” the actress wrote on her Instagram.
Wood has spoken about partner abuse before but has so far refused to give his name. According to the 33-year-old actress, the musician subjected her to psychological, physical, and sexual abuse, and also threatened her. Rumors that Manson was overstepping the acceptable boundaries in his relationship with Wood have been around for a long time. So, it was rumored that in the video for Heart-Shaped Glasses, he forced her to have sex on camera.
Together with Evan, the silence was broken by four more women who had a negative experience with Manson. “I speak about it publicly so as not to attract his attention again. Because of the way he treated me, I developed mental health problems and developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). All of this affected my personal and work relationships and hurt my self-esteem. I think he takes pleasure in destroying human lives. I want Manson to answer for the evil he has done, ”writes Sarah McNeilly.
A similar story was shared by a girl named Gabriella: “It took me five years to decide to say this publicly: I had an abusive relationship. I was diagnosed with PTSD and still suffer from nightmares. I blocked many memories, but the feelings remained, and they manifest themselves in different ways. The reason I finally share this traumatic experience is because of my healing and that I no longer want to be silent. I think it's unfair when someone is not responsible for their terrible actions. I'm not a victim. I am a survivor. “
Manson's representatives deny all charges. We will follow the development of events.
