Herschel Walker’s ex-girlfriend is describing what she claims to be Walker’s violent behavior toward her as the U.S. Senate race between Sen. Raphael Warnock and the football star enters its final hours.
On Sunday, Cheryl Parsa, 61, told NBC News that she had a five-year relationship with Walker in the 2000s.
During an argument in 2005, she claimed that Walker pressed her head against a wall, grabbed her throat, and cocked his fist in an attempt to deliver a punch that missed and struck the wall.
Several inquiries for clarification have not been answered by the Walker campaign.
Last week, the story of Parsa was reported by The Daily Beast.
She claimed that in 2005, after finding Walker, also 61, with another woman in a Dallas home, she confronted him. Parsa stated, “He told me, you want to see a man,” in an interview. I’ll show you a guy.
She claimed that Walker pressed his forehead against hers, pressed her head against a wall, and spoke so loudly that he spit on her.
Parsa provided an explanation, “He had his hand on my throat and chest, and then he leaned back to strike me.” I was fortunate enough to escape this. Additionally, the blow struck the wall rather than me. Before Walker ran for office in Georgia, three of Parsa’s confidantes told NBC that she told them about the incident.
His ex-wife, Cindy Grossman, claimed she was a victim of domestic violence during their 2008 marriage. Grossman said that “he pulled a pistol and put it to my temple” during the incident. He threatened, “I’m going to blow your [expletive] brains out.”

The candidate has stated in the past that he has had mental health issues. In his conversation with Warnock in October, he expressed that the circumstance is taken care of. He stated, “I continue to seek assistance as required.” But I don’t need any help. I’m doing alright.”
In an interview with Spectrum Sports in 2013, he stated, “I’ve got personalities who do a lot of things, including a guy who wanted to kill someone.” In his 2008 book “Breaking Free,” Walker stated: My Life with Dissociative Identity Disorder,” in which he explained that he was given the diagnosis of the disorder, which causes him to have multiple, distinct personalities.
Simon & Schuster, the book’s publisher, teased it: Herschel was aware that things sometimes got out of hand in his life. He was frequently irritable, self-destructive, and unable to connect with his loved ones in a meaningful way.
Georgia Honor, a Progressive faction adjusted, Senate Greater part PAC-subsidiary gathering, started broadcasting TV promotions in the state last week, including Grossman’s charge and other claimed Walker dangers of brutality.
In a subsequent challenge to Walker’s credibility, Christian Walker, Walker’s 23-year-old son, tweeted two months ago that his father once “threatened to kill us.” He stated that the three-time Heisman Trophy winner’s “every family member” has advised him not to run for the U.S. Senate. Walker disclosed to the Daily Beast that he has three additional children, which were previously unknown to the general public due to the controversy surrounding abortion.
