Samantha Cope Addresses 'Deeply Troubling' Statement Made By Ex Joey Lawrence amid Divorce
Actress Calls Out Ex-Husband's 'Outright Fabrication'
Statement Released Amid Highly Publicized Divorce Proceedings
Samantha Cope, ex-wife of actor Joey Lawrence, has released a statement refuting a recent, "deeply troubling" allegation made by Lawrence.
In a now-deleted tweet, Lawrence claimed Cope was responsible for his absence from the "Saved by the Bell" reboot sequel series. According to Cope's statement, this allegation is a "complete and utter fabrication," and she has "no idea" why Lawrence would make such a claim.
The statement comes amid a highly publicized divorce between the two, which was announced in July 2022. Cope and Lawrence were married for three years and have two daughters together.
Allegation 'Damaging and Untrue'
Cope's statement further expresses concern over the potential damage such allegations could cause, especially to their children.
"This kind of behavior is not only inappropriate but it's also incredibly damaging," Cope said in her statement. "I'm deeply concerned about the message it sends to our children and the example it sets for others.
Legal Action Not Ruled Out
Cope also hinted that she may consider legal action if the allegations persist.
"I will not hesitate to take appropriate legal action if necessary to protect myself and my children from further harm," Cope stated.
Lawrence's Deleted Tweet Raises Questions
Lawrence's original tweet has since been taken down, leaving many to wonder why he would make such a claim.
Some have speculated that Lawrence may be attempting to shift the blame for his absence from the "Saved by the Bell" reboot, while others have suggested that the allegations may be a result of the stress and emotions surrounding the divorce.
Statement Draws Support
Cope's statement has drawn support from her fans and followers.
Many have praised Cope for speaking out against false allegations and for prioritizing the well-being of her children.
