In a shocking revelation, legendary James Bond actor Sir Roger Moore has come forward to disclose that he was subjected to physical abuse by two of his former wives.
Despite being married four times, Moore claims that Doorn van Steyn and Dorothy Squires were both physically abusive during their respective marriages.
The actor shared harrowing details of the assaults, which included incidents such as being hit with a teapot and struck over the head with a guitar.
During an interview on Piers Morgan’s ITV show, Life Stories, Moore recounted the abuse he endured.
He explained how Doorn would scratch him and even threw a pot of tea at him when he gave her a cheeky response after sunbathing in the garden.
Determined to leave the toxic situation, Moore recalls smashing open the bathroom door, only to find his clothes soaking in the bath.
Frustrated, he had to wait for them to dry before finally departing.
Reflecting on the experience, he realized that the marriage was doomed from the start.
Speaking about his second wife Dorothy, Moore revealed that she had a volatile temper.
To avoid confrontations, he would often strum the guitar while she ranted on about various topics.
However, one day, the situation took a dangerous turn.
Moore described it as a slow-motion sequence, feeling the guitar slipping from his hands and witnessing it crash down upon him.
The guitar was ruined, leaving behind a testament to her explosive outburst.
After enduring such tumultuous marriages, Sir Roger Moore finally found happiness with his third wife, Luisa Mattioli.
Currently, at the age of 84, he is happily wedded to socialite Kristina Tholstrup, who provides him with a tranquil relationship free from arguments.
These revelations shed light on the dark side of Moore’s personal life, exposing the abuse he faced at the hands of his former wives.
Sharing his experiences publicly not only raises awareness about domestic violence but also emphasizes the importance of speaking out against such behavior.
Sir Roger Moore’s courage to share his story serves as a reminder that even those in the public eye can be victims of abuse.
