Mary Murphy Opens Up About Abusive Marriage On Ellen DeGeneres
OCT 21, 2009 AT 07:39 AM
'So You Think You Can Dance' judge Mary Murphy is doing the rounds promoting the reality competition and shedding light on her experience with domestic violence. I actually read a piece done on her in 'Us Weekly' over the weekend and it was just heartbreaking.
The subject is naturally intense, so I won't write about it here. In case you wanted to hear it, watch the video. She is a true survivor. It's wonderful to see Mary was able to rise above the ashes and succeed in life.
If you fast forward to about 6:00 or so, Ellen even admits to having gone through abuse and not receiving support from her family members. Brought me to tears.
Make sense why she's all laughs and smiles now...she's happy that she claimed her life back, and she's living it. Good for her.

They showed clips of her from So You Think You Can Dance. She is truly the most freaking annoying person on the planet. I do feel bad for her on her abusive marriage, and hopefully by speaking out she inspires other women to seek the help they need.

It was truly sad watching this. I'm glad she and Ellen were able to move on to living happy and fulfilling lives.
