Mel Gibson’s ex-mistress, Oksana Grigorieva, is portrayed as a gold digger.

But a Russian newspaper portrays her in a different light.

In the highly controversial custody battle between Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva, the media has portrayed Oksana as a gold digger, an extortionist, and a liar who has all but destroyed Mel Gibson’s life. See Oksana Grigorieva’s $10 million Extortion Plot against Mel Gibson Backfires

However, a recent interview in a Russian newspaper portrays Mel Gibson’s ex-fiance and the mother of his daughter in an entirely different light.

In an exclusive interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda, a close friend of Oksansa Grigorieva reveals shocking details of Oksana’s relationship with Mel Gibson.

Oksana’s friend was highly upset that the details she revealed in the interview, are unknown, or have gone unreported by the American press.

A translated version of that interview reveals the information below.

A Relationship Fraught with Violence and Terrorization

The Mel Gibson – Oksana Grigorieva “fairy tale” romance took a negative turn after the birth of Lucia. Mel became annoyed when Oksana began doing charitable work.

Mel Gibson is given to frequent “fits of anger” which he kept under control during the beginning of his relationship with Oksana.

Last December, Oksana’s mother, Ludmila Grigorieva was present, during one of Mel’s frequent “fits.” Oksana was holding the baby at the time. The next day Mel “dropped to his knees, started crying” and promised to go into therapy.

Oksana kept silent about Mel Gibson’s “fits”, because she felt sorry for Mel, and kept hoping he’d get professional help.

One evening as Mel tried to attack Oksana, she ran into the house and shouted to her son to hide. From his hiding place under the bed, the frightened 12-year-old boy watched helplessly as Mel Gibson tried to strangle his mother.

Oksana called her friend one night, crying, saying she was afraid because Mel Gibson held a gun to her head and threatened to kill her. It was then that Oksana’s friends told her to start recording their conversations.

Oksana entrusted the recordings to the court, and was shocked and overcome with embarrassment when she found that the recordings had been leaked to the press.  See NEWS ALERT: Oksana Grigorieva’s Sister Natalie Suspected of Leaking the Mel Gibson Tapes    
 

Victimized and Persecuted              
 

Mel Gibson's family hired a blogger to wage a 3-year internet "smear campaign" to ruin Oksana Grigorieva's reputation

Mel Gibson demanded that Oksana adhere to a strict dress code, to which she willingly complied.

Oksana found physical evidence that Mel had brought his Polish mistress to their Malibu home while she was away. See Did Mel Gibson Cheat on his Russian Mistress, Oksana Grigorieva with a Polish Mistress?

In a Foreign Country With 2 Children and No Funds of Her Own       

Mel Gibson tried to buy his own daughter from Oksana Grigorieva for $15 million

Oksana signed a document without consulting her attorneys, in which she relinquished any claim to Mel Gibson’s fortune.

Mel Gibson spent $1,800,000 on Oksana’s album, not $5 million, as it was reported. But according to Oksana’s friend, Mel, not Oksana, holds all the rights.

Mel Gibson refuses to pay Oksana Grigorieva the agreed upon $4000 in child support because he does not want her to have enough money to be able to afford an attorney.

Oksana has no funds of her own; lives in a house that is not her own, and must depend on the generosity of friends, who provide food for Oksana, the baby, and her 12-year-old son.

These are just a few of the shocking details revealed to Komsomolskaya Pravda by Oksana’s friend, about what Oksana has been subjected to.

A Different Picture of Oksana Grigorieva

If even half of the details above are true, a very different picture of Oksana Grigorieva begins to emerge.

This shocking information certainly does not how Mel Gibson in a favorable light.

Is Oksana’s friend telling the truth about Oksana Grigorieva’s relationship with Mel Gibson?

Will the information in the Komsomolskaya Pravda interview eventually be corroborated by another source?

Only time will tell. We’ll just have to wait and see.
