Briana Renee STILL Estranged From Family After Explosive Matt Grundhoffer Divorce
Jan. 4 2019, Updated 10:20 a.m. ET
Briana Renee has ended her marriage to estranged husband Matt Grundhoffer, but unfortunately their divorce hasn’t settled her family feud. The Little Women: LA star’s father exclusively revealed to RadarOnline.com that he is still estranged from his daughter amid her nasty divorce battle.
Renee, 35, began feuding with her family when they disapproved of her relationship with Grundhoffer, 40, because of his previous domestic violence arrest.
“I don’t have contact with Briana,” Robert Kealiher told RadarOnline.com. “I hope the best for her always. Briana is an adult and it’s her choice.”
He explained that while he continues to see Renee’s daughter Leiana from a previous marriage, he has yet to see her one-year-old son Maverick, who turns 2 this month, with Grundhoffer.
“I haven’t seen Maverick at all since he’s been born,” he said. “But Leiana seems fine after the split. Everyone’s fine.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Renee filed for divorce from Grundhoffer on November 30. She requested spousal support and for the court to terminate any support to him.
Then on December 8, she filed a request for a domestic violence restraining order against him, asking to protect her and their son Maverick.
Renee claimed Grundhoffer called her a “c**t,” “stupid piece of s**t” and a “worthless b***h” on November 24.
“Matthew specifically states he would take our son away from me and take him to Washington,” Briana alleged.
Two weeks before the incident, she claimed he went on a “four day drinking binge.” She alleged he “wanted to die” and verbally attacked her.
She also alleged to have found graphic sexual messages between Grundhoffer and another woman on November 28.
“The conversations were recent and involved bestiality and the proposals of sex acts with minor children, including the proposal of involving sex acts with Matthew’s minor child, age 12, from a previous relationship,” she claimed. “I am fearful for him to be left alone with our minor son.”
On April 2017, she alleged he threatened to “kill everyone in the house,” including Renee and her daughter, she claimed in court docs.
She requested sole legal and physical custody of Maverick with no visitation awarded to him. The order was granted.
Their next court hearing is on August 1, 2018.
Renee quit the Lifetime series after the filings.
The divorce and restraining order comes after years of sexting scandals involving Grundhoffer.
Trans model Plastic Martyr came forward as one of the women involved in a sexting scandal with Grundhoffer.
