Michael Phelps Girlfriend: Taylor Lianne Chandler Reveals 'Pain & Confusion' From Her Past [VIDEO]
Taylor Lianne Chandler gave more insight on her past before she became known as 'Michael Phelps' rumored ex.'
On Tuesday, Chandler took to Facebook to say that someone asked her who she was before the Phelps drama started. And she couldn't think of an answer.
So the woman did the best she could in explaining where she came from, which involved "pain, confusion and horrible things." She added all her jobs and how unsteady her life was after leaving her home at 15-years-old.
"I lived in a one bedroom apartment above a bus station," Chandler wrote. "I walked to Shop & Save to get groceries and I hitch hiked to get to the beach for work. There would always be a cute guy on a motorcycle to give me a ride home. I got a lawyer and had my birth certificate and name legally changed. Then I got another lawyer to help me sue my dad and grandparents for custody of myself."
Chandler added that men became so much a part of her that she didn't know what to do without them. It also didn't help that she had illnesses to worry about.
"Everything I loved came from acceptance from a man, a feeling," she wrote. "I wanted to belong. I wanted to be loved and know someone wouldn't leave me. Borderline Personality Disorder has been a struggle my whole life. Determining real anxiety and paranoia. I love so easily, so desperate for that connection I have been taken advantage of many times."
Chandler finished her post by saying these issues have taken her positivity away and there's apparently more to her than people realize.
"I was always fun, full of life, ready for adventure, down to please my man. BPD doesn't allow you to be happy or know what pleases you or even what's real half the time. You think you know me. You know nothing about me..."
