TikTok star Addison Rae’s father allegedly had a five-month affair with a 25-year-old woman, who claims he lied about his divorce and broke up with him after other women accused him of hitting on them online and in person.
Renee Ash, claimed Monty Lopez, 46, a TikTok star who became famous with his daughter, told her his marriage to Rae’s mother was over and that he wanted to start a family with the 25-year-old.
“Unfortunately he misled me about his marriage, he lied to me,” Ash told Page Six. “He told me we would be together and have babies together.”
“He even introduced me to his mom and youngest brother and I thought we had something right,” she added. “He told me a story about his marriage that convinced me they were separated and in the process of getting a divorce.”
Ash said she split from Lopez for good earlier this week after he was accused of hitting on several women when one of them uploaded a video that appeared to show the middle-aged influencer grabbing her butt.

Ash said she broke it up with Lopez after two incidents this week, in which young women accused the TikTok star of hitting them. A woman showed a recording of her alleged encounter with Lopez at a club (pictured) and said he wanted to have sex with her
Lopez, who has 5.4million TikTok followers, was recently accused by two women of hitting her and cheating on his wife Sheri Easterling, 42.
In a viral clip that has since been deleted, a TikTok user recorded the moment Lopez appeared to touch her butt and her reaction to it while she was at a club.
“Addison Rae’s dad is trying to fuck me, I swear to God,” says the young woman while showing the scene.
Another video, since deleted, shows a young woman talking to someone over the phone, urging her to FaceTime him. Though the man’s face is difficult to make out in the dark, his voice is similar to Lopez’s, and the woman claims it was him.
“POV: When Addison Rae’s dad talks to you late at night,” she captioned the video.
Ash said the videos broke her heart and that she regrets her relationship with him and the pain she has caused his family.
“I’m so sorry if anything I said hurt his family even more than he already has,” Ash told Page Six. “And I’m also sorry that he hurt me so badly that I thought we were in love.”

Ash said she was heartbroken after Lopez was accused of hitting on several women this week
Last week, Rae unfollowed her father on Instagram and Easterling removed “wife” from her Instagram bio. Lopez still listed the two as his family in his bio.
Following news of the alleged affair, Easterling took to Instagram to say she is fine and her biggest concern now is the impact this will have on her children.
“Personal matters that are made public are always challenging and overwhelming for everyone involved,” Easterling wrote. ‘I’ll be fine.’
“My greatest concern is – and always will be – my children and their fragile hearts and minds. I will always do my best to try to protect her.”
“My goal is to make sure they feel safe and secure and know everything will be okay,” she added.
Ash, Lopez and Rae did not immediately respond to ‘s request for comment.

Ash also claimed that Lopez was a possessive boyfriend who didn’t like it when she spoke to other men and that the couple almost split in June after an alleged pregnancy scare last month.
She told Page Six that she felt she had no support from Lopez after believing she was pregnant, despite his alleged promises that he wanted to have children with her.
“You dealt with my pregnancy anxiety really badly,” she reportedly wrote to him on WhatsApp afterwards.
“I can’t handle it… having two positive tests and [you] blows me away. Especially after you kept saying I’ll never retire [and] I want to marry you.’
The two reportedly discussed starting a family during a trip to the south of France in May.
Despite Ash saying she was in love with Lopez, she began to have doubts after he allegedly continued to deny her requests to go public with their relationship.
“Addison and Sheri don’t deserve this, and neither do the other girls he dislikes,” Ash told Page Six. “I hope sharing my story sheds light on a man who has gotten away with his power in the industry for too long.”
“It’s been going on in LA for too long and I just want to be the girl brave enough to speak the truth,” she added.
