Salling’s ex-girlfriend and former Glee co-star Naya Rivera claimed in her memoir that she wasn’t surprised by the child porn allegations. “When Mark dumped me, I thought it was the worst thing ever, but can you imagine if that didn’t happen? And I was laying there in bed when the battering ram came through the door?” She wrote.
