“Love & Hip-Hop New York” star Tahiry was brutally beat backstage at an event during New York Fashion Week on Monday, September 8th. She was involved in an altercation with a production manager, Carlos Gonzales, where he struck her first! Tahiry’s injuries were so bad, the reality star had to be hospitalized for her injuries. Tahiry took to Instagram on Thursday to speak out on the incident, and let fans know how she is recovering.
Tahiry writes:
“Thank you ALL for your well wishes. I am both appreciative and grateful to have you on my team and call you #teamtahiry! I am sincerely touched by your outpouring of love. As you may or may not know, on Monday, Sept. 8, I was attacked, assaulted and violated, while in the workplace, by a man. I was beaten because I am woman with a voice and refuse to be disrespected. It is more proof that the violence against women is real and needs to be addressed publicly. The shaming and disrespecting of women/victims of violent abuses must stop. Violence against women must stop; a women’s voice and refusal to be disrespected is not grounds for physical abuse. #iamwoman #myvoicematters More to the point, I am home, healing and surrounded by love. Rest assured, I will continue all my efforts and endeavors with the same faith, determination, passion and spirit I have always possesed. Again, thank you! You are ALL heroes of mine! Love, Tahiry”
