Nicole Young has said that her estranged husband, Dr Dre pointed a gun at her head two times during their 25-year-old marriage.
The couple, who got married in 1996, are presently enmeshed in an acrimonious divorce process.
In court papers filed on January 5, Young further alleged that Dr Dre punched her in the head twice.
“I have explained in excruciating and painful detail the abuse that Andre has perpetuated against me over our more than 25-year relationship.
“Andre has held a gun to my head on two occasions, on January 8, 2020 and November 20, 2001; Andre has punched me in the head/face on two occasions, in 1999 and on January 8, 2000; Andre kicked down the door to a bedroom in which I was hiding from his rage in 2016; Andre has verbally and emotionally decimated my personhood to the extent that I currently suffer post-traumatic stress syndrome,” the court papers said.

She confirmed that Dr Dre was right when he claimed that law enforcement officers were never called during their marriage.
“However, Andre conspicuously omits the fact that the police were called in approximately September 1995, shortly before our marriage, after he slammed me up against a wall and lifted me off the floor by my neck. During our marriage, I considered calling the police several times; but, as I fell deeper into the abusive relationship, my fear of Andre outweighed any confidence I had that the police could help me,” the court filing further revealed.
