In an emotional Instagram post, La Toya shared a throwback photo of herself with two black eyes, which were presumably from her abusive marriage to Jack Gordon from 1989 to 1997. In her photo caption, La Toya expressed gratitude for making it through that time in her life and encouraged anyone who needed to hear that message to do the same:
“Freedom is extremely important to me, simply because I thought there was a time that I wouldn’t exist. I wasn’t able to be myself and express myself, I was beaten, I was dictated to and told exactly what to say to the Media and how, or else…. I simply wasn’t allowed to speak to anyone, read or even watch-television. I didn’t even know how to use a cell phone or computer because he didn’t want me to gain knowledge from the outside world. I wasn’t privy to it.
I’m simply urging you to take control of your life and not allow anyone and I do mean ANYONE to control you.
My inexperience of not knowing how Manipulative, Conniving and Controlling people can enter one’s life is DEVASTATING! I’m passing on my experience to you and I hope you get some Wisdom and [Understanding] out of this! And simply allow this NOT to happen to you!Always Love, Light, Kindness, Positivity & Stay Strong! I LOVE YOU ALL!
