One day after Ray Rice was cut loose from the Baltimore Ravens following the release of a video showing him striking and knocking out his then-fiancee, his wife is defending her husband and blasting the media for the pain caused to her family.
In an Instagram post apparently written by Janay Rice, she said she felt like she was "mourning the death of my closest friend."
"I woke up this morning, feeling like I had a horrible nightmare, feeling like I'm mourning the death of my closest friend," Janay Rice wrote in the post. "But to have to accept the fact that it's reality is a nightmare itself. No one know the pain that the media & unwanted options from the public has caused my family. To make us relive a moment in our lives that we regret everyday is a horrible thing.
"To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is horrific. THIS IS OUR LIFE! What don't you all get. If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happines away, you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know we will continue to grow & show the world what real love is! Ravensnation we love you!"

Oh I get it. And, you have the right to forgive you husband and move on. Who Am I to judge a repentant heart.
However, sin has temporal and non-temporal consequences. In the here and now the NFL does not want to hurt its brand with women and have this spectacle on the field. You and Ray will have to work hard to get back in the league and your instagram theme of "leave us alone" does not help.
Waiting for Whoopie to chime in, it wasn’t really domestic violence, domestic violence.
And mourning the loss of $10 million!
Hillary Clinton is a good example of standing by your man.
She’s lucky to be alive.
Isn’t he getting released from contract for $25million? Maybe the whole thing was an act.
If not, she’s an ‘idjit’ for going through with the marriage ceremony and staying with him.
But I love him!
“Dis all be mess’d up, yo. It was my fault...I’z all up in his grill and I deserved ta git beatdown. Blame me. “
(”And, give him his paycheck back.”)
Please no more “pink October”
Maybe ONE week. If at all.
Another of Rush’s predictions coming true. Rush said women would be reluctant to report abuse do to their comfortable lifestyle.
Rush 1 - Liberals 0
That’s just sad... She’s an absolute idiot.
do = due
She should take her $12.5M and....run, Janay, run!
Give it a few days. This whole episode will be turned into some form of racism being perpetrated on Rice and his family.
You mean....no cha-ching?
I'll go with both.
The $25 million is what he has already been paid. He's getting nothing going forward. Now that he's no longer in the money, she'll probably file for divorce. Hope he saved some for the divorce lawyers!
Islam awaits, Janay. Islam awaits.
Mark my words - the way out of this for Rice is to ‘find religion’ and rejoin the league as Mohammed Al Baraqi, reformed religious person.
Janaynay will start producing little homicide bombers, and keep all that loot.
She reminds me of those dumb-ass women on COPS who apologize to Rocky who just beat the hell out of her at the same time that they’re hauling her punk-ass lover to jail while the coward swears he’s gonna’ kill her when he gets out of jail. Been goin’ on since time immemorial.
That's what he's already been paid - nothing more going forward.
