Blake Jenner Breaks Silence on Melissa Benoist's Domestic Violence Claims Nearly One Year Later
Blake continued, "However, as hard as it has been to come to terms with it and as hard as it is for me to even describe that moment in detail now, whatever the intention may have been I am responsible for the pain that I caused her in that moment and beyond. And it is something I am still working on forgiving myself for."
The star went on to claim "there was mental, emotional and physical abuse inflicted from both ends," writing that he and Melissa consulted with a therapist on how to end the "toxic cycle" they were stuck in. He also claimed Melissa "scratched," "slapped" and "punched" him on numerous occasions, forcing him to "conceal and make up lies about many visible injuries." Blake also alleged, "I was physically assaulted in the shower, leaving me with a traumatic injury that I do not want to delve into at this time."
He returned to his motivations for speaking out now, almost a year later, explaining that this is part of his healing process. "In speaking about my experiences, I wish there was a way to convey that it is truly not my wish to drag her down in any way. This is something that I feel as though many people do not understand: I want her to heal, but I, too want heal—and I chose to believe that the two are not mutually exclusive," he shared.
