(Anonymous) 2021-02-02 09:25 am (UTC)(link)In 2007, Dita spoke with Harper's Bazaar about the divorce. Though she didn't want to share explicit details, she said that she went into the marriage with an expectation for monogamy. She also said that she decided to move out of the home she shared with Marilyn as a result of "something bad."
"Let's just say that it must have been something pretty bad for me to move out of the house after six years together and to pack up my stuff on Christmas Eve. I loved him, and this was the most painful thing I have ever had to go through. It's been really difficult," she explained.
"It's not what I expected when I got married, and I felt like I'd found the man of my dreams. But sometimes things change overnight, and you have to make a choice as to whether you're going to respect yourself and say, 'I'm not going to accept this. This is not okay.' I'm not the first woman, or the last, to go through what I'm going through," she continued. "I just keep reminding myself of that."
Abuse is definitely a strong possibility here, but we're not given anything conclusive, so it's really not that surprising that it didn't blow up into a huge thing in the press. And of course, the fact that DVT is famous for her burlesque career undoubtedly didn't make people take the things she was saying more seriously (which is deeply sad and fucked up, but well, society is shit like that). :(

I was a feminist myself back then, or thought I had to be, so I instantly believed her and internalised a dislike of Marylin Manson.
but since then I've seen people just straight up not accept it until now. Probably because I couldn't find the interview or statement.
