Jana Kramer exclusively told Us that she got ‘triggered’ filming Lifetime’s ‘Gaslit by My Husband: The Morgan Metzer Story’ due to her past abuse
“I feel sad for the version of myself that I was, that I would accept someone to put their hands on me,” Kramer, 40, exclusively told Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 4, while getting choked up. The singer added that she feels “sad” for survivors that are “trapped” in feelings of shame.Kramer’s ex-husband Michael Gambino, whom she was married to for less than one year in 2004, was convicted on attempted murder charges in 2005 after subjecting Kramer to severe domestic abuse.
“I was nervous to talk to her just because I am telling her story and I wanted to be respectful of her story and tell her story how it happened,” she said. “She was familiar with my domestic abuse background, where we got to in the end was we both were doing it because we wanted to shed light on this topic and what's going on. And she was gracious to share her story, but we all know that it's a lot of women's stories that we're telling.
The actress added that she kept in close contact with her therapist during the filming process as the role brought back difficult memories.
