Evelyn Lozada Interview, First Post-Split, With 'Good Morning America'
Evelyn Lozada wants to tell the world about her incident with husband Chad Johnson.
Lozada was reportedly ready to have an intimate discussion with Robin Roberts this week on "Good Morning America" because she felt that the morning show news anchor has "tremendous integrity," but it has been rescheduled due to Roberts' scheduled leave of absence.
Unfortunately, due to Roberts' illness -she was recently diagnosed with MDS - the morning show co-host could not sit down with the reality star because it conflicted with scheduled medical appointments to treat her blood disorder. According to the report, Amy Robach will sit in for Roberts and Lozada has already approved of the replacement.
Johnson was arrested for a domestic violence after head-butting his wife and "Basketball Wives" star on Saturday, Aug.11. The incident report, obtained by TMZ, revealed that Lozada found the receipt for a box of condoms in the trunk of the car she shared with her husband as she was taking groceries into their home. When she questioned Johnson, who recently changed his last name from Ochocinco, about them, he responded with a head-butt to her forehead following an argument. The assault resulted in a laceration on her forehead.
The report also stated that he yelled, "I don't give a f***! I don't give a f*** about my career!"
On Aug. 13, the day after he was released from jail, the Miami Dolphins football coach released Johnson as the team's wide receiver. Johnson's wife of six weeks filed for divorce in Florida on Tuesday, Aug. 14. According to TMZ, Lozada filed the petition stating that their marriage is "irretrievably broken." The report also revealed that the couple had a prenuptial agreement.
The reality star married Johnson less than two months prior to the incident on July 4 in Saint Martin. The wedding planning and ceremony was recorded for their reality show "Ev and Ocho," but VH1 announced that the network dropped the show from their fall lineup.
The 36-year-old was spotted smiling and kicking back at a beach on a beautiful day in Barbados with several friends on Aug. 25. In the pictures, Lozada is shown happily soaking up the sun, wearing a tan-colored hat, a green two-piece bathing suit and a multi-colored sarong-style wrap. She has allegedly been wearing several hats in order to cover up the gash left on her forehead as a result of the highly publicized dispute.
A date and time for the exclusive interview on "GMA" has not been announced.
