Logan Marshall-Green’s ex-wife has accused him of raping her while they were married, and claims she once had to get an abortion after he forced himself on her.
Diane Gaeta made the claims in an Instagram post on Wednesday while sharing her thoughts on why Roe v. Wade shouldn’t be overturned.
She said she’d had two abortions, one when she was a teenager and another when she was ’35 and married’.
She did not name Marshall-Green, who is best known for playing Trey Atwood in The OC, but the pair were married from 2012 and 2020.
‘I had a second abortion when I was 35. I was married and had two kids but my husband practiced and joked about “marriage rape.” We had an argument and then make up sex, in the pitch dark from behind as my penance outside in the garage.
‘I told him it was my fertile day and he needed to pull out and he said, “No.” and didn’t. I got pregnant. He was away in Jordan shooting a movie and I was alone with both of my children. I told him and he said if I had another baby he would divorce me. He didn’t want another kid, case closed.’
She said the fetus was showing signs of abnormality and wouldn’t have survived a full term pregnancy.
‘I went to my OBGYN and he said that he didn’t like the levels on the baby’s development anyway and it would be okay to abort, even though I was devastated, because the baby would probably be abnormal and not viable anyway.
‘Without abortion I would have been forced to carry a baby whose tissue was growing into the walls of my uterus with a man who was raping and physically abusing me and would leave me with a third baby and whom I was totally dependent on financially.
‘Again, I went through this abortion totally alone and still, abortion has helped me save and shape my own life,’ she said.
Marshall-Green has not responded to her comments.
