Naya Rivera’s Husband Speaks After Being Abused By Wife

Days after Naya Rivera was arrested for domestic battery, her husband Ryan Dorsey is speaking. He states,

This is a difficult time for everyone in the family especially for Naya and I. This isn’t some reality show, this is our life, and I ask that everyone especially ‘the media’ please respect our privacy and treat us/this situation how you would want a loved one to be treated.

He adds,

Perhaps with kindness, respect, without judgement, and as negative a situation like this is, with positivity and love. Thanks.

As previously reported, on Saturday, November 25th, the 30-year-old Glee alum was charged with domestic battery.

Dorsey told authorities that while the couple walked their 2-year-old son, she struck him on the head and lip. Dorsey, who is also an actor, showed officials a cell phone video of the alleged attack.

Rivera’s bail was set at $1,000 and she was later released and picked up from the courthouse that same evening by her father-in-law. It is reported that alcohol had been a factor in the altercation.

Rivera filed for divorce from Dorsey in November 2016 after two years of marriage and requested primary custody over their son.

The duo later reconciled and she withdrew her filing last month. Previously, she was engaged to rapper Big Sean.
