In a statement,

"Even though the crew were there, it was all [in the tabloids] like, 'The next wife falls at his feet. The most disconcerting thing was the people I didn't think would believe it, did, and they were texting my boyfriend, asking, 'Are you OK?' I don't think they believe anything they read now because you just can't. None of it is real."
