Loni Willison’s story is truly heartbreaking and painfully raw. Once a rising fitness model known for her striking looks and modeling for magazines like Flavour, Iron Man, and Glam Fit, her life has taken a dramatic downhill turn. These days, she’s often seen wandering the streets of California, rummaging through dumpsters, a stark contrast to the glamorous image she once projected. Now 39, she’s openly blaming her ex-husband, Jeremy Jackson—best known for his role on “Baywatch”—for the severe decline in her mental health and overall well-being.
In an interview published by X17 Online last Friday, Willison was asked about where she thought her life went wrong. Her answer was blunt and filled with bitterness. “My former spouse,” she said without hesitation. “Getting hitched. I got divorced, at least.” With her voice tinged with pain, she added, “He arranged for this to happen to me.” It’s a stark statement, and it reveals a lot about the emotional scars she’s carrying. The couple’s marriage lasted less than two years, ending painfully in 2014, and what followed was anything but a fairytale termination.
Willison alleged that during an apparent drunken altercation, Jackson tried to choke her—a disturbing detail that casts a long shadow over their tumultuous relationship. Whether Jackson will respond to these accusations remains uncertain; attempts to reach him for comment by The Post went unanswered. But the details, along with her appearance — disheveled, with short hair and lacking her former top teeth — mark a sharp contrast to her past life as a stunning, confident model. She had disappeared from the public eye for more than four years and only resurfaced in 2018, but her return was anything but the glamorous comeback many might expect.
Instead of her signature bronze glow and glamorous blonde hair, she looked worn and exhausted. Her physical and mental struggles seem to have taken a heavy toll. During her latest interview, Willison described her pain quite vividly. “My stomach hurts really bad,” she said, her voice rough and tired. “I’m in a lot of pain.” She explained that she can’t find a place to live and that she’s no longer allowed near power sources. She claimed she had been “electrocuted” every day for about a year, which she believes has caused further damage—both physically and mentally. The severity of her condition is clear when she admits, “I believe that in addition to sensing electricity, I also detect other substances such as wire, various metals, fuses, batteries, and specific compounds. Therefore, I believe that my body even filters that kind of stuff.”
It’s a haunting statement, one that emphasizes how far she feels from normal life. When asked what measures she’d taken to seek help from the city of Los Angeles, her response was heartbreaking. “There’s nothing that anybody can offer me,” she said simply. She went on to claim that she never even asked for help, despite receiving offers. It seems like she feels completely abandoned and unsure where to turn. “There’s nothing we can do to help,” she added, a tone of resignation in her voice.
Willison also acknowledged that her life hasn’t been satisfying or fulfilling. She described her existence as a mixture of good and bad moments, but she didn’t seem hopeful about her future. “Whatever,” she said, shrugging her shoulders when asked about her overall outlook. She also pointed out the injuries on her fingers, gestures that speak volumes about how much she’s been through. When the interviewer suggested that she have them checked out, Willison just reassured him, “I’ll be fine,” with a faint hint of resignation rather than confidence.
Back in 2018, she had spoken with the Daily Mail about some of her struggles, particularly her battles with crystal meth addiction. She said at the time that her addiction was a form of torture, that she was “getting tortured in my home, my apartment,” and that her mental and physical health had deteriorated due to substance abuse. It seems her struggles with drugs and her relationship with Jackson are deeply intertwined.
Jackson himself is no stranger to addiction and controversy. The 42-year-old has been very open about battling alcohol, steroids, and drug addiction. His troubled past includes a prison sentence after accepting a plea deal for allegedly stabbing a woman in Los Angeles back in 2015. He also faced a public scandal when he was kicked off “Celebrity Big Brother” in 2015 after allegations that he had stolen a fellow contestant’s robe. It’s a turbulent history that adds context to the chaos that has engulfed both their lives over the years.
Loni Willison’s story is a stark reminder of how fragile mental health can become when faced with trauma, addiction, and instability. Her honesty about her suffering and her blame toward her ex-husband reveal a fractured past marred by pain, regret, and a sense of loss. Despite everything, her story continues to resonate—a raw, human hardship that echoes.
