Zach Bryan’s ex, Brianna LaPaglia, details alleged emotional abuse during their relationship on a popular podcast, hoping to help others facing similar challenges.
Country star Zach Bryan faced serious allegations from his ex-girlfriend Brianna LaPaglia on a popular podcast, claiming emotional abuse during their relationship.
LaPaglia, a 25-year-old internet personality, shared her experiences on the “BFFs” podcast, describing a tumultuous year-long relationship characterized by what she called manipulative behavior.
She portrayed Bryan as initially loving but later transforming into someone who would allegedly scream during arguments and consistently make her feel distressed.
The podcaster claimed she was initially hesitant to speak out, feeling intimidated by potential consequences.
She dramatically stated she turned down a $12 million offer to remain silent, emphasizing her desire to share her story and support others experiencing emotional abuse.

Among her most serious accusations, LaPaglia alleged that Bryan had previously required ex-partners to sign non-disclosure agreements and suggested a pattern of controlling behavior.
She framed her podcast appearance as an act of personal empowerment, declaring she wouldn’t “sign away” her experiences.
Bryan, a Grammy-winning artist, has not publicly responded to these allegations.
The couple, who first became romantically linked in July 2023, had a brief relationship that ended in October, with screenshots of Bryan’s dating app profile surfacing online shortly before their split.
LaPaglia stressed her goal wasn’t to “expose” Bryan but to reclaim her narrative and potentially help others in similar situations.
