Taryn Manning is speaking out about the recent video that appeared to show her attacking Holly Hartman, who she clarified is not her girlfriend.

Taryn is alleging that Holly is a 36-year-old woman that she met when she was 18 and has been trying to help out by letting her live in her office space because she’s homeless.

On Tuesday (March 31), the 47-year-old Orange is the New Black star posted a series of videos to her Instagram to share her side of the story.

“It’s all just a shame. ❤️ @tmz_tv it would be rad to post the real story,” she wrote in the first video, along with, “Girlfriend? Ha NOPE.”

The first clip starts with Taryn looking at the camera and saying, “I guess some stuff came out today on TMZ about me and I don’t want to watch it because I don’t want to upset myself.”

She continued, “I know that violence is never, ever, ever OK. And there’s a lot of context to that story that, obviously, didn’t make it.”

Then Taryn goes on to accuse Holly of bashing her windshield, slashing her tires, and going to the Daily Mail about her, along with responding to TMZ in a thread.

“It is the most aggressive and violent attack, and she’s living in my office because she’s homeless,” Taryn says.

She also alleges that someone named “Rika” is the reason why she doesn’t have a front tooth, that Rika “beat the crap out of” her, ripped her lip, and tore the ligament that connects the lip to the gums.

“All over the world, I look like this one-sided violent person. It’s just sad because I’m frustrated with her, like, I don’t know, she’s not my family, she’s not my girlfriend, not my wife, why do I have to house this random girl that I befriended 18 years ago? It’s too much,” Taryn continued in another video.

The Crossroads star claimed that Holly wants to put her “in jail” and has threatened to “ruin” her life.

She also accuses Holly of being “crazy,” “weird,” and trying to distract from her own crimes.

“Keep trying to distract me from all your crimes. Here we go. This sucks and it’s bad .just go away. Weird people. God bless. Move on,” Taryn wrote in another caption.

In her last video she wrote, “Toothless, ripped my lip and no sorry @sellebrityric bonafide junkie. Ruined my face I make money with ???? my career,” in the caption.

The account she @ has been deleted, it’s unclear who it belonged to.
