According to the police report, Cecily’s partner admitted that they had both been drinking before things got a little out of control. Cecily allegedly became verbally and physically abusive, and according to her partner punched him on both sides of his face and bit his upper back.

And it was a whole different story. She confirmed there was an altercation during which, “a man” struck her, and also “said vile things” about her deceased mom, Dog’s former wife Beth Chapman. Cecily went on to say, “I used proportional response, disabled the aggressor, and stood up for the memory of my mom.”

Regarding Beth, Cecily added, “She would have handled it the same way, I can assure you.” Since then, it seems like Cecily has been able to put the incident behind her. But she has since made headlines for other, sadder reasons. As it turns out, since the tragic loss of her mom, Cecily’s relationship with her stepdad has fallen apart.

She also went on to reveal that she had never actually met Dog’s new wife Francie in her life. And that she had only seen her dad twice since Beth’s funeral. However, Cecily had tried to be diplomatic about the situation.
She said that her dad had to find his own happiness and that she was happy for him, before adding that he had to do what he had to do. Although her family ties might not be as strong as she might want them to be, Cecily seems determined to keep her head held high.
