But earlier this week, Lawless claimed the bloom was off the rose in a TikTok video.

Now, Jameson is ramping up the bitter she said-she-said war of words.

“(I hope) that anyone struggling with addiction or trying to stay sober has access to an empathic and loving support system,” Jameson told the Daily Mail.

“Research has shown that empathy and understanding are better responses to addiction than judgement, shaming, and moralizing.”

Jameson added: “Expressing your unconditional love and support may be one of the kindest things you can do. Let them know that you are there for them – relapse or not, ten days sober or 200.  Unfortunately, in the past, due to cultural attitudes surrounding addiction, tactics such as shaming, humiliating, shouting and ‘attack therapy’ were commonplace.”

As for Lawless, she took to video to lay out her case for the split.

“This is a very difficult video for me to make. But here it goes, There are a lot of rumours going around that Jenna and I are getting a divorce and I am making this video to confirm that,” she said in her video.

“I told her in the beginning of our relationship that I was drawing a hard line and that drinking had led to so many problems in her life, that I would not tolerate it at all under any circumstances. And this is the first time that she went to an event without me since we’ve been married.”
