“There was no soul in his eyes, they were empty….I’m just in shock that he’s standing on, slapping me in the face. At this point, he punches me in the face to the point where there were teeth indents in my lip. I couldn’t eat for 3 days because like my jaw felt like it had unclicked.”

Reflections on Abuse and Healing
In a poignant Instagram post on April 4, 2025, Kayla articulated the deep emotional scars left by her time with Johnson. She shared her struggle in coming to terms with her experiences, stating that no one should endure a relationship where love is intertwined with fear and violence.
“I was silently being abused while posting my life online smiling. It’s true; you can see it in the eyes. I watch my old videos and see someone I NEVER want to see again. It drained my soul and ripped apart the strong nature of myself I’ve had my entire life,”she penned.
Kayla’s journey toward healing is marked by a desire to help others avoid similar fates. She expressed her hope that her story could empower those in abusive situations to seek help and leave. In her video series, she emphasized:
“Filming this video was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. When you watch these videos, if you relate to ANYTHING, leave. He doesn’t love you. This is not only my story, but yours.”
