Tisha filed on January 24 for a domestic violence restraining order against Martin, claiming he has been physically abusive in their relationship for years.
The actress says the most recent abuse happened this past December, when he allegedly “grabbed me by my arm to try to get me in the bedroom,” after claiming their son was sick.
In an affidavit, Tisha says the physical abuse began months after their wedding in 1996, claiming, “I had been emotionally, mentally and physically abused. I kept things hidden from my family his family our friends and the public, save a few very close friends and people who may have witnessed, over the past two decades, filing it away in the back of my mind to protect my family, the community and the pubIic’s persona of my spouse.”
Tisha says she always believed she was a “strong woman” by keeping the alleged abuse under wraps, but now admits she’s “scared,” and says she owes it to her children to speak the truth about her relationship.
