Andre Young, also known as Dr. Dre, is known for his tumultuous relationships with former wives and partners. Apparently this extends to former marriage counselors as well. The rapper is now facing litigation because his ex-therapist is living in fear of him. Most of us would not want to be on the wrong side of Young if we could help it. It turns out Dr. Sophy feels the same. Learn more about the litigation, Dr. Dre, and his former therapist below.
Former Marriage Counselor In Fear
The back and forth between Dr. Dre and his former marriage counselor is astonishing. The psychotherapist is suing Andre Young for $10 million due to unbearable harassment. Dr. Sophy, an actual doctor, claims he is in fear for his life and wears a bulletproof vest when he leaves home. That truly demonstrates a fear that is affecting his everyday life. Imagine, ladies, someone wearing a restrictive, uncomfortable undergarment throughout the day. We have no experience with that. Either way, it is a far step to feel like one must take for personal safety.
Dr. Sophy believes that he maintained integrity as a marriage counselor and then divorce mediator as Andre and Nicole Young decided to part ways in 2021. Over a year later, according to the lawsuit, Dr. Dre reached out appearing to project a lot of his hurt feelings about the ending of the marriage onto Sophy, blaming him instead of taking accountability. Young went as far as to level a complaint with the Osteopathic Medical Board, seeking revocation of the psychotherapists license.
There is a series of what appears to be threatening text messages from Young directed to Sophy that are scary. They progressed over time, with a potential threat that made the therapist feel he needed to file a lawsuit and request a protective order. The doctor also alleges that Dr. Dre hired FBI agent impersonators to gain access to the professional’s home, threaten his safety, and send a ‘message’ in person. Is the former counselor doing this in retaliation for Dr. Dre ‘tattling’ on him with the board, like the rapper’s lawyer alleges? Only time will tell.
Dr. Dre’s Track Record
The rapper and music producer has mostly flown under the radar despite alleged dangerous and toxic behaviors with women. That sort of thing could probably be swept under the rug in the 1990s when social media didn’t exist and Dr. Dre was famous. West-coast rap culture of the 90s also wasn’t exactly the pinnacle of female empowerment and safety either. However, even if Young’s behavior didn’t set alarm bells off 30 years ago, it doesn’t mean it can’t be addressed now.
Since the first recorded incident in 1991, allegations have been flying. Dee Barnes, host of ‘Pump it Up,’ accused Young of slamming a brick into her face in a restroom on set. Barnes suffers long-term effects physically, was ‘black-listed’ by the industry, and was even homeless for a time. His former fiancée. Michel’le also alleges that he cracked her rib and gave her multiple black eyes. She stepped away from Dr. Dre and a promising music career. No wonder so many women like Barnes and Michel’le stay silent, particularly if they want to maintain their careers.
In probably the longest relationship of Young’s life, his former ex-wife alleges that he was domestically abusive throughout their 24-year marriage. Some examples of the alleged abuse include a firearm being held to her head and being punched in her head and face. Ms. Nicole Young believes she suffers from PTSD as a result of the relationship.
Conclusion
Dr. Dre is not a man you want to be on the wrong side of. Unlike Dr. Oziel being ‘threatened’ by Lyle Menendez, the text messages give this more credence. A criminal case might seem more logical for Dr. Sophy than a civil lawsuit in the minds of some readers. Either way, hopefully the litigation process goes smoothly and everyone remains safe and sound. Do you think Dr. Dre will lose the lawsuit? Will he ever be held accountable for his treatment against women?
