Tim Lambesis’ Ex-Wife: “The Abusive, Cheating, Narcissist Will Try to Destroy Your Life”
Hours after footage of As I Lay Dying‘s Tim Lambesis hitting his dog surfaced online, his soon to be ex-wife Dany Ciara released a statement outlining the abuse she’s experienced at his hands. Which isn’t too much of a shocker to read because… well… he’s been too much of a piece of garbage for too long.
The entire statement, which she posted on Instagram and is posted below, claims that at multiple points she experienced intimidation, coersion, and other methods to keep her silent in an attempt to save his image. She also said she and Lambesis are currently in the process of getting divorced, making her ex-wife number three.
Though she said she didn’t release the videos and asked that they stop, she said she’s no longer willing to stay silent over the shit she experienced. According to her, the statement that she allegedly put out back in October wasn’t her own words and was instead drafted by Lambesis and his people to protect his image. Not to mention his recent attempt at rehabbing his image was chock full of lies, according to what she said.
None of this should be a shocker to anyone that’s been following the whole Lambesis saga, which involved multiple lineup implosions, leaked videos of him getting aggressive toward Ciara, and that little thing called trying to have his first wife killed by an assassin that led to his eventual incarceration.
Fuck this guy.
“I did not release the videos that have come out of Tim Lambesis. Not the ones that were released in November, nor the ones that were released today. Out of respect for me, I’m asking whoever is leaking videos to please stop.
“I will no longer stay silent out of fear of Tim. The lies being told by him in his last statement and in this recent podcast are deliberate attempts to cover up the truth and play the victim, using typical DARVO tactics.
“There was NEVER a domestic violence investigation against me, nor was there ever a restraining order placed against me. This is public information anyone can access online. The videos that Tim claims to have of me ‘abusing him; are instances of self-defense and outbursts against his ongoing physical and mental abuse, and repeated infidelity with hundreds of people. The statement I released on October 24th defending his abuse, was drafted up by him and his new ‘managers’ to protect his career and public image. Which I have proof of.
“Tim has continuously tried to intimidate me, bribe me, and beg me to sign an NDA in our marriage settlement stating that I will never publicly talk about him, so that the truth will be buried when our divorce is finalized, which are all recorded conversations. I also have a recorded phone call from Tim a week ago, rationalizing, and explaining why he thinks we should get back together.
“I refuse to let dishonesty overshadow the pain and trauma I have endured any longer. Not just to me, but to others close to this as well. This isn’t just about me anymore. There is Tim’s version of why his ex band mates left AILD, and then there is the truth. There is no “irony” behind the timing of the dissolution of AILD, and our marriage.
“Towards the end of our relationship, Tim told me, ‘In psychology, when someone hears a story of abuse in a relationship from one person, they are more likely to believe that person’s version because they were the first to tell the story.’ At the time, I didn’t fully understand what he meant, but it is very clear to me now.
“The abusive, cheating, narcissist will try to destroy your life & your name with lies before you can shine light on the truth.
“I am done being SILENT”
