He further warned, “And if you guys do know who threw it, you need to get ‘em outta here, if we ever find out who did it.” After delivering his message, Bryan continued with the show.

LaPaglia described the abuse as a cycle, saying, "I don’t expect people to understand emotional abuse if you haven’t been through it, and I hope you never have to go through it, but if you’ve been there, you know what I’m talking about."

"It was just this constant cycle of, ‘Build you up, beat you down, apologize,’ over and over and over," she said as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.
