WWE Superstar, Drew McIntyre (real name Drew Galloway) has spoken for the first time since reports came out last Friday that his wife, WWE Diva Tiffany (real name Taryn Terrell) was arrested following an altercation between the two at a hotel in Los Angeles.
McIntyre, speaking to the Sunday Mail, a newspaper in his homeland of Scotland yesterday, said that the situation was a ‘complete misunderstanding’. “I can’t say anything else until it’s cleared up, which will be very soon,” he told the paper.
Meanwhile, McIntyre’s mother, Angela Galloway, is also quoted in the article saying that Drew and Taryn are still together, suggesting things are not as bad as they seem. “I knew they were going to a party on Saturday but I didn’t know anything about Taryn getting arrested. I spoke to Drew and he said not to worry, that everything had been blown out of proportion. He says he is OK and he and Taryn are still together.”
Glad to see that Drew and Taryn are okay and hopefully this situation resolves itself soon.
Full article from the Sunday Mail is after the cut:
BUNNY GIRL’S SMACKDOWN
Taryn arrested for assaulting her husband in LATHE Bunny girl wife of Scots wrestling champion Drew McIntyre has been arrested for allegedly attacking him.
Taryn Terrell, 24, was detained by police at the couple’s Los Angeles hotel room after security staff raised the alarm. The couple, who married in Las Vegas in May after a whirlwind romance, had been at the Playboy mansion hours earlier for the annual midsummer’s party.
Terrell, who also wrestles under the name Tiffany Diva, was taken into custody at 8am but later released on £10,000 bail. Her Ayr-born husband, who is 6’5″ and weights 18 stone, is a star of World Wrestling Entertainment while she is manager of WWE’s Extreme Championship Wrestling show.
It’s believed the charges against the former Playboy model and Bunny girl include assaulting her spouse. It has been reported that she is due to appear at Los Angeles Municipal Court next month.
Grapple pro McIntyre, 25, was the first Scot to sign a contract with WWE, the world’s biggest wrestling championship. He was not arrested or charged and is standing by his wife. It is believed that when WWE officials found out about the incident they suspended Terrell until further notice.
But last night McIntyre claimed it had all been a “complete misunderstanding.”. He added: “I can’t say anything else until it’s cleared up, which will be very soon.”
Hours before the incident, Terrell posted a photo of herself at the party on Twitter and tweeted: “On my way to the mansion for midsummer’s so ready to have lots of fun.”
McIntyre’s mum, Angela Galloway, said: “I knew they were going to a party on Saturday but I didn’t know anything about Taryn getting arrested. I spoke to Drew and he said not to worry, that everything had been blown out of proportion. He says he is OK and he and Taryn are still together.”
McIntyre moved to the US in 2007 to pursue his-then fledgling wrestling career and changed his surname from Galloway. He became engaged to Terrell in July last year and the couple, who spent much of their time on the road on WWE tours, are based in her native Louisiana.
In an exclusive interview with the Sunday Mail earlier this year he said: “From the moment Taryn and I met, we clicked. It was fantastic and our relationship has just got better and better.”
Thanks to Cathy for sending that along.

Glad to see all’s not lost for Tiff.
Hilariously poor research on the journalist’s behalf though:
“wrestles under the name Tiffany Diva”
“is manager of WWE’s Extreme Championship Wrestling show”
Nice to know it wasn’t nearly as bad as we thought it would be. Hope her suspension gets lifted soon.
But LOL at “Tiffany Diva” and saying that she’s GM of ECW even though she hasn’t done that for months. Love inaccuracies like that.
if that’s how drew feels himself, then hopefully the wwe won’t be too harsh.
DId tiffany beat drew? It thats so then she’s a gangsta!!!!! Another tigerwood story. lol.
Here’s hoping things really are as positive as that article suggests.
Oh, another misunderstanding. These celebrity couples should try and pick up some people skills to prevent their poor communication from getting them accidently arrested.
When do women get arrested 4 beating a man ???
Meltzer talked about this on WOL:
- WWE are mad at both Drew and Tiffany because they didn’t tell them as soon as it happened. Drew hasn’t helped himself here.
-It’s known for being a stormy relationship.
-They’re insisting it wasn’t a violent siuation, just that the hotel people where scared by all the yelling. Although the $20,000 is really high for just yelling, so it may have been worse that was let on.
- Tiffany has allies in management. This is mainly when she got the role of ECW general manager despite not having great mic skills (putting it mildly). This will help her, since anyone else, without those connections would likely be gone.
I have renamed her Skirt Tiffany Diva.
thank goodness!! (: come back to smackdown! soonTiffany!!
I’m glad that Taryn and Drew seem to be okay. I hope things stay that way and they get to move past this soon.
Love how bad a piece of journalism that Sunday Mail article is, though. All the emphasis is put on Taryn’s history of being a Playboy model and a “Bunny girl” (whatever that is) , and they can’t even get her ring name correct nor her current position in the company. Yet, Drew is a “Scots wrestling champion” and a “grapple pro”. Talk about biased towards Drew and disrespectful to Taryn.
Also “McIntyre, 25, was the first Scot to sign a contract with WWE”, eh, no, I do believe those were the Highlanders.
Wow I’m annoyed by his lack of actual research. Anywho I’m extremely happy that at this point their still together. I hope she does return but the news truthful or not that it was blew up is good news. lol @johnHype and Eric… I mean seriously
glad you got the story diva dirt i had been trying to get it to you since i saw it, but couldnt find it any where on the net
tiffany diva made me laugh lol…
she hit him in front of the cops i think or wouldnt settle down or was looking violent lol..
she needs to put more of that anger for training & in-ring lool…
I’m confused, but I’m happy for them still being together and that things will be cleared up. Bring back Skirt Tiffany as soon as possible!
Well it seems a little better. I’m sure Tiffany won’t be suspended for long and she’ll probably just get a warning.
Yes theres still chance Tiffany’s just misunderstood I just wanna give her a hug after all the trouble she went through
glad their still 2ggether and i hope she dosent get fired *fingers crossed*
“skirt tiffany diva”! xD
o wow im so happy to be here!
WTF
