Taryn Manning appeared to attack her girlfriend, Holly Hartman, in a new video.
In the clip obtained by TMZ on Monday, the “Orange Is the New Black” actress was shown in a heated altercation with Hartman, who appeared to be recording the incident.
“Look what you’ve done to my f—ing studio!” Manning yelled, before she threatened to call the police.
Hartman replied, “Call the police. I’ll show them you just attacked me.”
When Manning denied attacking her, Hartman said, “Yeah you did. I have it.”
As the pair continued arguing, Manning appeared to lunge at Hartman before the video ended.
Manning addressed the incident in an erratic Instagram video on Tuesday, telling her followers that she doesn’t want to watch the TMZ footage “because I don’t want to upset myself.”
“I know that violence is never, ever, ever good,” Manning said, claiming that Hartman has been living in her office because she’s allegedly homeless.
“This is a 36-year-old woman that I have tried for so long, for 18 years, to try to help,” Manning also said of Hartman.
The “8 Mile” actress added that she’s “frustrated” with Hartman, who she said is not her “girlfriend,” but rather “a random girl that was a fan that I befriended 18 years ago.”
“It’s too much. She’s crazy,” Manning said.
“It’s bad. This is bad,” she concluded her video.
Page Six has reached out to Manning’s rep for comment.
Manning has had a tumultuous history with Hartman, who was her makeup artist.
In 2016, Hartman filed a restraining order against Manning after an alleged physical altercation, according to TMZ.
The restraining order was denied because it was filed in Los Angeles and the alleged incident occurred in New York.
Hartman reportedly claimed in court documents at the time that Manning headbutted her, and then “whipped me with a wet towel. Sprayed Windex in eyes and mouth. Put me in a headlock cutting off air.”
Manning also allegedly yelled, “Pick a knife. I’m wearing a white shirt. There will be a lot of blood. You will be famous for killing Taryn Manning.”
In 2012, Manning was arrested for attacking Hartman at the Dream Hotel in New York City, per TMZ.
During the alleged fight, Manning reportedly punched Hartman in the face, kicked her in the face and torso, scratched her, choked her, and grabbed her by the hair and slammed her against the floor and wall.
Manning faced two misdemeanor charges, assault in the third degree and criminal obstruction of breathing or blood circulation, but they were both eventually dropped.
