COURTNEY Stodden is demanding an apology from Chrissy Teigen after she exposed tweets from 2011 and 2012 of John Legend’s wife apparently ‘bullying’ the then-16-year-old, The Sun can exclusively reveal.
Courtney, 25, rose to fame in 2011 when she married Green Mile actor Doug Hutchison, who is 35 years her senior, at only 16 years old.

Courtney exclusively told The Sun how she is currently going through a healing process from the trauma she endured during her marriage and from others in Hollywood.
She said: “As I’m going through this process, it’s forcing me to go through all of the life events I’ve been through. My therapist told me, ‘You bury things and you don’t look back.’ I’m realizing how much abuse I endured.”
Courtney then said of Chrissy’s tweets: “It bothered me so much. I didn’t realize how much it affected me. Chrissy told me to take dirt naps. It made me see she’s part of this dark issue. Telling girls to take a dirt nap. She needs to learn, apologize and never do this again.”

Courtney called Chrissy, 34, a “bully” and shared tweets apparently from the model from 2011 and 2012.
One tweet read: “@CourtneyStodden my Friday fantasy: you. Dirt nap. Mmmmmm baby.”
A second read, “Go. To sleep. Forever” in response to a tweet from Courtney that read: “On the 8th day of Christmas my true love gave to me: Eight Erotic Elves.”
A third read: “@CourtneyStodden I hate you.”
A fourth read: “@CourtneyStodden what drug makes you do that with your mouth? Asking for a friend who really wants to know how to look like an idiot. thanks.”
The tweets Chrissy was responding to for the latter two posts are no longer available, according to Twitter.

Courtney continued to The Sun: “I hope she’s not bullying anymore. Chrissy with her platform telling me to take a dirt nap, you believe it.
“I loved John and looked up to her, it was devastating.”
Chrissy has not responded to the tweets publicly or privately, as Courtney claimed she was blocked.
She added: “She hasn’t responded. She blocked me! If she doesn’t apologize it shows her true character.
“I would forgive her. She could do good. Acknowledge, change, grow and learn.”
A rep for Chrissy has not responded to The Sun’s request for comment.

Courtney also recently came forward about her interaction with billionaire Peter Nygard, 78, who she claimed sexually groped her at one of his events in 2017.
She claimed in Predator King: Peter Nygard’s Dark Life of Rape, Drugs, and Blackmail by Melissa Cronin: “He had like that spanx line [Nygard Slims] or whatever that was, and he was telling me, ‘Oh, come model, you know, the Spanx for me! Then after that you’re going to have to come to a pamper party and then you and I are going to escape on my boat to the island and then we’re going to talk about your career there. But I can’t have anybody else around.’”
Although she managed to escape Peter at the event, she claimed in the book that he sent her “very explicit” texts “almost every day” after their encounter.
She alleged: “You know, it still hurt inside, but I was like, ‘Oh, okay. Well this is part of the game, you know, it’s the casting couch.’ I mean, I wasn’t going to ever sleep with him, but he could just touch me and do whatever he wanted when he was around me because he was helping me.”
Peter has not responded to Courtney’s claims, but his lawyer did deny sexual abuse allegations made by 10 women in a class action civil case that remains ongoing.

Courtney and her ex-husband, Doug, 59, who she has accused of verbal abuse and of “grooming” her, were officially divorced in March.
A rep for Doug at the time claimed her allegations were “retaliatory.”
Courtney has been overcoming the trauma she claims she has faced in her marriage and in Hollywood through her memoir, which she hopes to release within the next two years.
She is also “finding herself” through music.

Courtney recently released a song called Butterfly, which is for survivors of trauma and abuse.
She also founded a non-profit organization called Above Abuse.
She told The Sun: “Me and my boyfriend Chris Sheng are creating it together. We’re going to really try to put a lot of people’s voices where they can share their trauma. It’s directed towards women and LGBTQ, men are allowed too!”
