In the new 'Super Models' documentary, Linda Evangelista opens up publicly about her tumultuous relationship with ex-husband Gérald Marie claiming he was abusive during their five year marriage.
The fashion icon holds back tears as she recounts her tumultuous relationship with the former model agency boss, who has denied all allegations, in 'The Super Models' streaming nowRon Galella Collection via Getty Imagesexplains that while her life certainly looked fun and fabulous at the height of her career in the early '90s, her relationship at the time couldn't have been a more polar-opposite experience.
"It's easier said than done to leave an abusive relationship. I understand that concept because I lived it," Evangelista, now 58, claims in the documentary. "It wasn't a matter of just saying, 'I want a divorce, see ya.' It doesn't work that way." Marie's lawyer Céline Bekerman tells PEOPLE: "Gérald Marie firmly objects to the defamatory and false allegations made against him. He refuses to participate in this dishonest media controversy."Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and More Show Fans the Life of 'The Super Models' in New Trailer
"When I found out that he's hurt many, many, many women, he's violated many women...It broke my heart," Evangelista says with tears in her eyes. "I never told my story because I feared...," she trails off before resuming, "Thanks to the power of all these women coming forward — bless them, God bless all of them — it gave me the courage now to speak."
