The father of TikTok star Addison Rae allegedly had a five-month relationship with a woman, 25, who alleges he made up his divorce and ended things with her after she reported him for hitting on other women both online and in person.
Monty Lopez, a TikTok celebrity who gained popularity with his daughter, is said to have informed Renee Ash that his marriage to Rae’s mother was finished and that he wanted to establish a family with the 25-year-old.
Ash told Page Six, “Unfortunately, he misled me about his marriage and he lied to me.” He promised me that we would get married and have children together.
He even introduced me to his mother and youngest brother, and I felt like we had a genuine connection, she continued. He described his marriage to me in a way that made me believe they were divorcing and no longer together.
After allegations that Lopez was hitting on multiple women and one of them posted a video that claimed to show the middle-aged influencer groping her butt, Ash said she finally ended her relationship with Lopez earlier this week.
Two women recently accused Lopez, who has 5.4 million TikTok followers, of hitting on them and having an affair with his 42-year-old wife Sheri Easterling.
A TikTok user captured the moment Lopez appeared to touch her butt and her response to it while at a club in one viral video, which has since been removed.
The young lady then plays the situation as she declares, “I swear to God, Addison Rae’s dad is attempting to f**k me.”
Another video that has since been removed shows a young woman on the phone with a male who begs her to FaceTime him.
The woman claims that it was Lopez even though it was difficult to see the man’s face in the darkness because of how similar Lopez’s voice sounded.
She captioned the video, “POV: When Addison Rae’s Dad FaceTimes you late at night.”
The films, according to Ash, shattered her heart and made her regret her relationship with him as well as the suffering it has brought on his family.
Ash told Page Six, “I am extremely sorry if anything I have said has upset his family any more than he already has.” I’m sorry he hurt me so badly because I thought we were in love, too.
Rae unfollowed her father on Instagram last week, and Easterling changed her Instagram bio to exclude the word “wife.”
The two are still identified as Lopez’s family in his bio.
A request for response from DailyMail.com was not immediately reacted to by Ash, Lopez, or Rae.
The pair almost ended their relationship in June after an apparent pregnancy scare last month, according to Ash, who also claimed that Lopez was a possessive partner who did not like to see her interacting with other men.
In spite of his apparent vows that he wanted to have children with her, she told Page Six that Lopez left her feeling like she had no support.
She allegedly texted him on WhatsApp afterwards, saying, “You handled my pregnancy fear pretty horribly.”
I can’t take [you] completely blowing me off after two positive tests. especially when you kept claiming that you wouldn’t back down and that you wanted to get married.
In May, the two apparently discussed starting a family while traveling across southern France.
Although Ash claimed to be in love with Lopez, she apparently began to have second thoughts as he allegedly continued to reject her requests for them to make their romance public.
Ash told Page Six, “Addison and Sheri don’t deserve this, and neither do the other girls he’s disrespected.”
“I hope that sharing my story brings attention to a man who has been abusing his position of authority in the business for far too long.”
I simply want to be the one who is bold enough to tell the truth because this has been going on in LA for far too long, she continued.
