She informs that she’s been labeled a porn star in public as recently as a few days ago, and the release of her sex tape really affected her in a negative way. She barricaded herself in her home after that tape came out and she started to drink heavily. She even contemplated suicide at that point because she was very depressed. She stopped eating, sleeping and all of her hair even fell out due to the stress she was under at that point.
She’s thrilled to say that she was able to get through that time, and she urges girls around the world to be very careful when making decisions regarding their personal life. She was only 19-20 years old at that time and she regrets her actions during that time. She also adds that she’s still very good friends with Xavier Woods, and she felt terrible for him when that tape was released as well.
Paige mentions that WWE has been fantastic throughout the last year or so, and they’ve helped her tremendously. She feels like she should have been fired multiple times by now, but she’s very thankful that they’ve stood beside her, even through her struggles with drug abuse.
She specifically mentions that former WWE Diva, Rosa Mendes, Mark Carrano and Stephanie McMahon were all very supportive of her and helped her through those tough times. She cut everyone off during her darkest days and her best friend, Alicia Fox understood entirely, quickly responding to Paige when she finally returned her calls.
