Brianna 'Chickenfry' LaPaglia detailed the emotional abuse she reportedly experienced while dating Zach Bryan.
LaPaglia dropped some shocking claims following her breakup with Bryan, accusing him of emotionally abusing her during their relationship.
On the November 7 episode of BFFs podcast, she claimed she declined a $12 million settlement allegedly offered to her if she agreed to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which would have silenced her from sharing her experiences with the I Remember Everything singer.
According to LaPaglia, she was told she would receive it "over the course of three years".
She added: "I did not accept any money. I will not accept any money. I think it’s beneath me. I think that it’s f----- up."
During the same episode, the podcaster looked back at the time the Oak Island singer "freaked the f--- out" when he heard her singing Morgan Wallen's track Last Night.
She quoted her ex yelling: “You’re singing another man’s song under my roof, in this house that I own.”
Bryan's ex also claimed she was also not allowed to listen to Noah Kahan's songs.
