Farrah Abraham is leaving California.
That’s what she told TMZ on Saturday, January 29, as she was standing next to a U-Haul. Abraham said that after being arrested on January 15, 2022, after allegedly slapping a security guard, she has lost function in the “upper-right side of my body.” She proceeded to describe the past week as being “really suicidal.”
Abraham then burst into tears, saying she has had a very difficult time dealing with the incident. She said she worries the same thing will happen when she goes out again.
“It’s defamation when someone says you touched them and I was actually attacked,” she told TMZ. “It’s just scary.”
Abraham concluded by saying that she will be moving out of state “sadly,” and added that Los Angeles is the only place she has ever experienced what went down in Hollywood on January 15ta, 2022.
Here’s what you need to know:
Abraham’s Arrest at Grandmaster Records
On January 15, 2022, Abraham was arrested on suspicion of a misdemeanor, according to E! News. TMZ reported that the reality star “got belligerent and was asked to leave the club but refused. At some point, she allegedly slapped the guard.”
Los Angeles Police told E! News that the “Teen Mom” star was placed on a citizen’s arrest around midnight and booked on a misdemeanor charge. She was released less than two hours later.
In a statement to TMZ, Abraham later said that she was “conspired against” and that she was the one attacked. “I’m tired of being maliciously battered, attacked, conspired against while having dinner at Grand Master Records, this was a private person’s arrest my lawyer is handling from here. It is terrifying and traumatizing that people attack me and I can not even enjoy dinner as I’m the only person out of 3 attacked and harassed when. I look forward to court as always, warning this place is a danger to public figures.”
Abraham posted a video of the arrest to her Instagram on January 16, 2022. A section of the caption she wrote read, “I realize it’s no longer safe for woman to go out to eat in their own neighborhoods. I look forward to my law degree and I look forward to court. Justice will be served as always. Woman it is a scary unsafe world we live in, act upon your rights and always care for others even when everyone hurts you and attacks you. You are resilient and you are stronger then all of the weak people out there who hurt and traumatize us.”
The Security Guard Released A Statement
The security guard involved in the debacle subsequently released a series of photos on Instagram to share her side of the story. The photos have since been taken down. However, in one of the pictures, the woman, Megan Armstrong, appeared to be sporting a black eye.
At the time, Armstrong wrote, “This is all so embarrassing yet I have to stand up for myself, not physically, by hitting her back because that would cause problems for me. I really have way too much to lose, I’m a student last few months in my bachelors program, I’m take care of my mom who has cancer, I work hard physically and mentally.” It’s unclear why the post was removed.
According to Us Weekly, Abraham is slated to appear in court on May 19, 2022.
As dedicated fans are aware, this isn’t the first time Abraham has gotten into trouble with the law. In 2018, per Us Weekly, Abraham was arrested for misdemeanor battery and trespassing.
Police told Us Weekly that Abraham was involved in a “verbal altercation” with guests, and when a male security guard tried to handle the situation, “Abraham struck him in the face with her forearm, grabbed his ear, and pushed him.” Officers added that Abraham appeared to be drunk at the time. The reality star was taken to the Beverly Hills Jail and held on a $500 bail.
A representative for Abraham subsequently told Us Weekly, “Please remember there are two sides to every story!”
