The 'BFFs' podcast Co-Host Claims Emotional Abuse By Zach Bryan
During the episode, LaPaglia dropped another bombshell, alleging that emotional abuse and fear of Bryan ultimately led her to reject the massive $12 million NDA offer.
She explained that although she initially refused Bryan's team's money, the life-changing amount stirred an intense "moral battle." LaPaglia admitted that the offer's allure was strong, especially considering her family's financial background.
"From the get-go, I was like … 'f— you, I don't want your money,' but then you look at my family, who obviously doesn't have money and comes from nothing, and they're like, 'take the money,'" she shared, adding that even Dave Portnoy, her Barstool boss, briefly considered advising her to take the payout.
In the end, LaPaglia explained that accepting the money was out of the question, as she could never find peace with the decision. She claimed Bryan allegedly emotionally abused her, leaving her with a deep fear of him.
