Inside Monty Lopez's Rocky Love Life
Lopez is facing a felony charge over the incident that occurred in August 2024.
The "Diet Pepsi" crooner's father has been in the headlines before, as in July 2022, he was exposed for having an affair with a woman named Renee Ash while still married to Rae's mother, Sherri Easterling.
Ash, who said the romance began in March 2022, claimed that Lopez told her he was single.
"Unfortunately, he misled me on his marriage, he lied to me," she told a news outlet at the time. "He told me a story of his marriage that convinced me that they were apart and in the process of getting a divorce."

Addison Rae's parents divorced twice. Her father remarried in October 2025.
Ash added that their relationship wasn't just a hookup.
"He told me that we were going to be together and have babies together," she spilled. "He even introduced me to his mom, his youngest brother and I thought we had something real."
She admitted that Lopez didn't "seem remorseful" about getting caught: "His response to all of the other girls and myself was an Instagram Story with the viral sound, ‘Am I the villain?’"
"He also posted the original article on his Story, almost boasting about it? Maybe that’s his way of coping through this. I’m not sure," she said.
Monty Lopez was accused of cheating on Sherri Easterling in 2022, the year they divorce for a second time.
Lopez and Easterling endured trouble before the affair, as they first divorced when Addison was just a child. They went on to remarry in 2017, only to split again in 2022.
Easterling, 46, then struck up a romance with Yung Gravy, 29, that same year, though things fizzled out.
Lopez mocked the unexpected pairing by writing on his social media page at the time, "Thank you @youngravy for taking the leftovers!"
Lopez married medical professional Kaitlyn Nicole Robins in October 2025 after just two weeks of dating.
