ICYMI, Mandy Moore's ex-husband, Ryan Adams, made a public apology after six women, including Mandy, came forward, accusing him of emotional abuse and sexual misconduct in a New York Times exposé.
Since then, she has issued an additional statement responding to Ryan's apology, calling him out for never apologizing to her privately.
Yikes.
First and foremost, let's get you up-to-date on Mandy Moore and Ryan Adams' turbulent history. The pair started dating in late 2007.
Although Ryan denied it — evidently, lying through his teeth.
“Which we’re not. She’s single, and I don’t know why everyone thinks she has to be in a relationship.”
Fast forward to 2015, just shy of their sixth wedding anniversary, they announced their split.
“It is a respectful, amicable parting of ways and both Mandy and Ryan are asking for media to respect their privacy at this time,” they said in a statement to Us Weekly.
“When I think back to that particular time period that we’re talking about … It was heavy. It was dark. It was confusing. It was lonely,” she said.
“There was no room for me. There was no room for me to have anything else in my life," she said.
In a New York Times exposé she said:
“Music was a point of control for him. He would always tell me, ‘You’re not a real musician because you don’t play an instrument.'"
"His controlling behavior essentially did block my ability to make new connections in the industry during a very pivotal and potentially lucrative time — my entire mid-to-late 20s."
"I just know that about him," she added.
“I haven’t spoken to him in, I don’t know, two years or something, but just knowing him as well as I know him, he really gets off on being talked about."
“There are no words to express how bad I feel about the ways I’ve mistreated people throughout my life and career," he said.
"I’ve gotten past the point where I would be apologizing just for the sake of being let off the hook and I know full well that any apology from me probably won’t be accepted by those I’ve hurt."
Mandy's response to Ryan's apology, however, was less than positive. Earlier this week, speaking with Hoda Kotb, she called him out for not apologizing to her personally.
She explained that she can't speak for the other women who have come forward with their own allegations, but she herself, has not heard from Ryan.
She said that she isn't even looking for an apology, but reaching out to her personally would certainly speak more volumes than making an online statement for everyone to see.
"But I do find it curious that someone would sort of do an interview about it without actually making amends privately.”
