Lorena Bobbitt shares what she’s doing now to reclaim her story.
. “People used to judge me before, saying that they don't believe my story. To tell the story again is more than a blessing, to me it is an opportunity to tell it right,” Lorena tells ET. In addition to executive producing and narrating the film, she also stars in the network’s new PSA for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
However, the Lifetime movie starring Dani Montalvo as Lorena and Luke Humphrey as John isn’t the first time Lorena has spoken out. Last year, she appeared on-camera to detail her life at the time in the Jordan Peele-produced Amazon docuseries , which also featured interviews with John.
“For many years, I kept a low profile and I avoided the attention,” Lorena says of wanting to create a somewhat normal life with her new husband, Dave Bellinger, and their daughter, Olivia, whom she gave birth to in 2005. But she soon recognized that not much has changed for domestic violence and survivors in the years since her own experiences, and she wanted to become an advocate for victims and survivors alike.
