Sean Avery Facing Restraining Order Amid Abuse Allegations

Sean Avery is still under a restraining order. Earlier this month, a court ruled that Hilary Rhoda's temporary restraining order against her 43-year-old husband will remain in effect, ET confirms.

 

Rhoda, 36, filed for divorce from Avery, a former NHL player, in July 2022. The model's temporary restraining order against Avery, which prevents the Oppenheimer actor from coming in contact with her and their nearly 3-year-old son, Nash, was first granted last October.

 

It will now remain in effect until the next hearing in their court case, which is scheduled for Sept. 11.

In the 2022 court docs, which were obtained by ET, Rhoda accused her husband, whom she wed in 2015, of both domestic and child abuse. 

 

Rhoda began by detailing an alleged September 2022 incident when Avery was arrested for domestic battery. She alleges that Avery "entered my house (even though I asked him not to), climbed in bed with me (twice) and wouldn't leave. He grabbed me by the arms and shook me, twice. I was very scared for my safety and called the police."

 

Since then, Rhoda claimed that Avery had been walking past her house "several times a day."

 

"I am scared of Sean," the docs read, "and feel threatened by this behavior and his acts of physical violence."

Rhoda additionally alleged, "Sean also yells, swears, and name-calls on a constant basis. He follows me, trying to get me to engage. He has engaged in many instances of physical abuse against me and against third parties. Sean has also been physically and emotionally abusive to our son, Nash."

"Sean became irritated that our son woke up sick in the middle of the night. He screamed at me (in front of Nash) to go get Nash's 'f**king medicine,' and then aggressively punched the wall in Nash's bedroom and then punched our bedroom door. (Nash witnessed this and was scared and grabbing on to me)," Rhoda claims. "Sean then followed me to the kitchen, and as I was trying to get Nash's medicine, he ripped the cabinet door open -- slamming my finger between the open cabinet and the wall. I was petrified of Sean and his physical and aggressive behavior."

 

She additionally alleged that, the next month, Avery "body slammed Nash on his changing table," which she claimed left the toddler "so afraid" that "he cried uncontrollably and couldn't catch his breath."

This doesn’t surprise me at all, coming from that guy.

Extremely disliked, not only around the league, but in his own locker room.
He parlayed that nice little run of like 80-90 games as a Ranger in 06-07/07-08 into a really nice deal with Dallas, and totally messed that up in like 8 or 9 months because of his big stupid mouth.

 

Did a good job as an agitator for the Rangers, but what a total jackoff.

He was also very well liked by a lot of his teammates, including Lundqvist.

 

Guy has obviously experienced trauma growing up. He's raising his kid how he was raised, probably. 

 

Doesn't make it right, but trauma is hereditary.

I loved and doggedly defended him as a player, but it's clear to anyone with eyes and ears that Sean Avery, the person, sucks. This is brutal to read, but it's completely in line with so many things that have happened with him since he's retired. The guy fuckin' harassed homeless people for funsies. I don't know how better and more succinctly it can be said: he's a garbage human being.
