“Fed to the Dogs”: Public Humiliation Takes Toll
Lydia described feeling publicly attacked, confessing, “I felt like I was just fed to the dogs.” She shared that Milton frequently belittled her—criticizing her speech and clothing—especially when his family was present.
Emotional Neglect, Fibromyalgia & Lack of Support
Lydia clarified the break-up wasn’t due to their seven-year age gap or long-distance relationship, but rather Milton’s lack of emotional availability, maturity, communication, and support. After her fibromyalgia diagnosis in September 2024, she said Milton failed to offer the understanding she needed.
Silent Treatment & Living Under One Roof
In a painful twist, Lydia revealed that despite living with Milton at his parents’ house, he gave her the silent treatment since she filed for divorce. Since moving out, she’s been staying with a friend while navigating the aftermath.
Finding Strength & Moving Forward
Despite the heartbreak, Lydia is charting a path forward. She emphasized that she will “never settle for feeling belittled or unwanted,” and expressed gratitude for Milton’s family, who she said remained supportive.
What’s Next for Lydia and Milton?
Lydia is prioritizing her wellbeing, self-worth, and future, determined to grow from this experience.
Milton has not publicly responded to her comments or divorce announcement.
Fans and media are closely watching for further developments from both.
