Jenni “Jwoww” Farley released an explosive statement on Jan. 30, accusing estranged husband Roger Mathews of physical and emotional abuse during their threeyear marriage. “I stand strong today. For me. For Greyson. For Meilani. They will not grow up watching their mother being a vic- tim of domestic violence,” declared the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star, 32, who got a restrainin­g order against her ex in December. Alleging Roger has spit at her, shoved her and aggressive­ly thrown her to the ground, Jwoww also claims that he was attempting to blackmail her with a video. So she released a few of her own, including one that appears to show the truck driver, 43, attacking the mom of two in their New Jersey home and another in which he admits to cheating on her shortly after she gave birth to their son in May 2016. (At the time of the shocking release, Roger said he had no comment, but in 2018, he denied allegation­s of infidelity.) “I have spent the last few months trying to protect our children from public humiliatio­n, because as parents, we are supposed to protect them,” Jwoww said in the open letter. “[But] Roger, know this.… I will not be threatened. I will not be controlled. I will not be broken.”

“A violent person is who you really are through and through,” MTV star Jenni alleged of Roger in an open letter, which included a video that appears to show him shoving her to the ground.
