Sarah Brady, Jonah Hill’s ex-girlfriend, has spoken out against the actor’s alleged emotional abuse<\/a> during their relationship. Sharing a series of disturbing screenshots on her Instagram Stories<\/a> on Friday, the surfer and law student seemingly exposed conversations with Hill in which he repeatedly requested she take certain photos of herself deemed “sexual” down from her social media. He also insisted that she stop being friends with men and \u201cwomen who are in unstable places.”<\/p>\n

In one of the first slides, Brady<\/a> shared a screen recording of what appears to be a text conversation with the Don’t Look Up<\/em> <\/a>actor. “This is a warning to all girls. If your partner is talking to you like this, make an exit plan,” she captioned the post. The clip showed texts from Hill, allegedly sending screenshots of Brady’s Instagram photos that he requested she take down. Many of the photos showed Brady, who is a surfer and instructor, in\u2014shockingly\u2014a bikini.<\/p>\n

Even after she complies, it appears not to be enough for Hill. “Good start…you don’t seem to get it,” he writes in successive texts. “But it’s not my place to teach you. I’ve made my boundaries clear. You refuse to let go of some of them, and you’ve made that clear. And I hope it makes you happy.” In the same conversation, she asks if he’d be more comfortable with a video of her surfing if the cover frame was different, to which he responds, “Yes, one that isn’t of your ass in a thong.” She corrects him by writing, “Not a thong.”<\/p>\n

After parting ways in early 2022, Brady admitted that she felt compelled to share her experiences after taking time to heal. “Sharing this publicly now because keeping it to myself was causing more damage to my mental health than sharing it could ever do,” she wrote. “I, too, struggle with mental health… It’s been a year of healing & growth with the help of loved ones and doctors to get back to living my life without guilt, shame, and self-judgment for things as small as surfing in a swimsuit rather than a more conservative wetsuit.”<\/p>\n

In screenshots that depict dot-pointed lists, Hill, 39, details everything Brady needed to give up to be with him, including “boundaryless inappropriate friendships with men”, modelling, pictures of herself in bathing suits, “surfing with men”, and “friendships with women who are in unstable places” from her “wild recent past”.<\/p>\n

She also shows how the actor used emotionally manipulative language to get his point across. “I have been vulnerable as possible, and I need you to step up to the plate. Which you can. I am sure of it,” Hill writes. “I respect your love of surfing, but I respect myself as well…This isn’t me. I have my own issues that I own.”<\/p>\n

Hill also goes on to attack Brady’s modelling, saying it was the “last profession” he would want for his partner and berating its merits.<\/p>\n

In another slide, Brady credited an excerpt from a Teen Vogue<\/em> article in which a reader was seeking advice about a partner who didn’t want her to wear a bikini to the beach. She wrote that it “did for me what couples therapy didn’t.”<\/p>\n

\n

Brady also said that Hill used his experience in therapy as a way to “control” her. The actor, who has been vocal about treating his mental health and directed the Netflix documentary Stutz<\/em><\/a> about his psychiatrist Phil Stutz, clearly employed ‘therapy speak’<\/a> to cajole and shame his then partner into doing as he wished.<\/p>\n

Brady acknowledges the documentary as \u201cunethical\u201d and even wrote, \u201cBoycott Stutz.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite her experiences, she laments that her ex-partner is not necessarily a bad person. “I think fame can put people in an echo chamber of viewpoints which can enable emotionally abusive behaviour,” she wrote. “Someone being an emotionally abusive partner doesn’t mean they’re a terrible person (often stems from their own trauma), and at the same time, it doesn’t mean it’s ok.”<\/p>\n

Hill is yet to speak out on the allegations. He and his fianc\u00e9e, Olivia Millar, welcomed their first child together in June this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42672,"featured_media":38591,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[36,35],"yoast_head":"\nSarah Brady Reveals Jonah Hill Emotional Abuse In
