The headline to this story is a bit misleading. Emma Roberts and Evan Peters did not get into a mutual shoving match at San Diego Comic-Con. What happened is this: Emma and Evan both attended Comic-Con to promote American Horror Story: Coven (where the above photo was taken). Emma (allegedly) got ragey at an after party and pushed Evan around, at which point he fled the premises.
It’s been about a year since Emma was arrested for domestic violence in Montreal. Reports said the incident left Evan with a bloody nose and bite marks, but he did not press charges against Emma. The day after that story broke, a source told Us Weekly that Emma is “very dramatic,” and she and Evan enjoy “a passionate, extreme relationship.”
Evan did not break up with Emma. They stayed together and even got dramatically engaged in January. I’ve been wondering how things were going between them. This week’s issue of Star says Emma is still violent, and she lost it at Comic-Con. Star has photos of Emma looking hysterical right before she (allegedly) freaked out on Evan:
Emma Roberts and Evan Peters may want to rethink their engagement. The turbulent duo were photographed having an explosive fight at a Comic-Con after party at the Omni Hotel in San Diego in the early morning hours of July 27.
According to reports, Emma and Evan started bickering at the party, and when the actor tried to patch things up, his fiance flew into a rage and pushed his chest. Evan allegedly left on his own while security tried to calm the inconsolable star.
“Their relationship isn’t healthy,” a friend admits. “They fight more than they get along and she has problems controlling her temper. She flips out at the drop of a hat.”
And this isn’t the first time the couple have come to blows, either. The newly-blonde beauty was arrested last summer after she allegedly attacked Evan in a Montreal hotel room, leaving him with a bloody nose and bite marks.

This story seems true, not only because Star has photos of Emma looking upset but because there’s documented history of her violent tendencies. Both of them should get some counseling. Evan needs to get out of this relationship. Isn’t that what we always say to women after their men beat them up? Just because Emma’s small in stature doesn’t make it okay to get physical with Evan. These two are catastrophic as a couple, and this situation will not right itself. Get out, Evan.

God the Roberts’ are a horrible family, eh? Get out Evan!
This^^^!
Yep. Given her father’s history of domestic abuse, it’s not surprising to see her going down this path, though it is sad. Hopefully there’s someone in her life who can urge her to get help.
And hopefully there’s someone in HIS life who can urge him to get out of the relationship.
Run, Quicksilver! Run!!!
You beat me to it!
Emma is a raging b!tch, though!
If this is true, yes, he needs to get out. And she needs to get some help before things get worse for her.
I did not see the X-Men movie but I heard that his Quicksilver was the best part of the movie.
He was at Tampa Bay Comic Con last weekend and from fan reports, was very nice.
I wouldn’t go so far to say that Quicksilver was the best part of “X-Men: Days of Future Past”, but he certainly brought a wonderfully light element to it. He added a little bit of humour to a mostly quite dark film. I enjoyed watching Evan Peters in it a lot.
The scene designed around Quicksilver’s POWER was great. It made for a very cinematic, exciting action sequence. I don’t remember anything significant about the character, though. As a person, Peters made no impression, which isn’t entirely on him, the part just wasn’t particularly well written, and he was only in the movie for about fifteen minutes. But his big action sequence was great.
Yeah, this. He played a very small, almost insignificant part, but he WAS the protagonist of what many people find the coolest scene in the movie.
But yeah, don’t go watch it for him only or you’ll be very dissapointed. He does play a very small part.
I feel like this is the X-Men movies in a nutshell: Mutants with extremely cool-looking powers, but who are they even? We don’t care about 95% them.
Blink was the same way for me. Her power looked so cool in the future parts of DOFP, and made for some great action sequences, but we literally don’t know anything about her. Quicksilver was memorable because of his action sequence, not because of anything he did as a character.
Emma always comes across as a spoiled little brat! She is too immature and young to even think of getting married. And Evan should leave…Emma has no right to put her hands on anyone…
She’s alllwwwaaaayyysss acted like a giant brat. Even when she had her terrible show that I’m sure her family ‘bought’ her, she always had such a snotty look on her face. I don’t know if it’s just how her face is, or what. Really, I’m surprised she gets as much work as she does, even with the famous family.
Clearly, the domestic violence hasn’t stopped. She’s barely a year younger than I am, and she seems to act like someone MUCH younger.
Abusers do NOT stop being abusive, ever. It is their choice to be like that and, usually, they like it. The only choice Evan has left is to leave, as soon as possible….
I was disappointed when these two got together from the very beginning, as I thought Evan could do better. Then when the domestic violence incident happened and they stayed together and then even got engaged, I was baffled. This is not a healthy relationship, “catastrophic” is a good word choice. Time to get out, Evan!
He needs to get away from her and stay safe
She needs lots of counseling. Hitting your partner is never okay.
Good on him for not hitting her back. I hope this is a wake up call for him that she hasn’t changed. And maybe having it ‘ve publicized (again) will get friends and family to push him to end
I don’t want to know what happens behind closed doors
Man she needs help and to be charged. You don’t hit people. Since she has hit him before and has no problem doing it in public who knows what she is doing to him in private.
Ugh, I hate when an immature, violent, sick relationship is described as “passionate.” That’s not passion. It’s not love. She needs help. He needs to leave.
🙂
Exactly, good comment!
Abuse is not love, it never was and it will never be.
Lots of people should be educated about domestic violence and abusive behaviour on large scale, there would be a lot less domestic violence situations.
Thank you, Goodnamesalltaken. THIS.
Ugh, disgusting. Her bahavior is sickening and unacceptable. He needs to tell this crazy b*tch to go get some help, and get away from her. This is not how “passionate love” works, at all. She is a violent, talentless scumbag. Maybe she is jealous of him-that man is amazing onscreen.
This! I also cannot stand when dysfunctional, unhealthy relationships are described as “passionate”!
They both need help. Realtionships like this just get worse over time.
Run Evan, Run!
This so much. Me and my boyfriend can both be very dramatic in a way that makes the tackiest telenovela seem serious, but we’ve NEVER been abusive to each other.
Agree. Abuse is abuse, and it shouldn’t be glamorized or trivialized.
Passionate does NOT mean overly dramatic, immature and violent! When you end up in blows you need counseling, you do not “enjoy a relationship”.
This relatonship won’t end well or soon.
Emma strikes me as a person who was never told no and has no concept of compromise.
And isn’t Emma returning to AHS for the freak circus? Her Coven character just looked like Emma walking on set and playing herself.
+1 Their friends are gonna start selling stories soon, once they get sick of telling them to leave each other alone.
Yeah, I really doubt she was promoting Coven, seeing as how it’s over. I’m guessing she was promoting next season’s freak show thing.
Yup to you both.
I read freak show will be kind of lighthearted like Coven was. Well, as lighthearted as these shows get atleast.
I’m really starting to dislike how Murphy makes Paulson the same type of character that goes for a final 1 on 1 with Lange.
What will happen when Lange leaves after this coming season?
THIS X 100000. Her acting in Coven didn’t even require method; she simply woke up and showed up on set as her usual self. The problem we have here is that she is a second-generation actress with an ever-present air of entitlement. Evan Peters, by contrast, is an up-and-comer, 1st generation actor, who has struggled to get where he is at. She, on the other hand, is a shining example of nepotism.
Neither of them is going to leave anytime soon. This is going to drag on because thats what mutually dysfunctional people do. If he didnt leave the first time it’s likely going to take several more instances or some real career fallout, for them to move on. Smh I know so many people who think this half-assed love is worth the b.s.
He probably thinks he can help her, and can save their relationship. I’ve been in his shoes with someone who acted just like Emma Roberts. I wish him well, and hope he has caring friends and relatives who can persuade him to leave her. That’s how I finally got out.
I didnt get out until I was truly embarrassed to be in it. Smashed my windshield. I think the problem is with every dramatic issue you let pass you think it has to be terrrrrible to finally leave. When people should just leave when their heart says “no” the first time.
Yes, this is exactly what happens, and yes, this is exactly when we should have left.
Naye- this, 100%. Beautifully said.
I wonder if she takes adderall. That can turn you into a rageaholic.
Or is she bi-polar? Maybe he has his own issues, or a savior complex? This seems well beyond 20-something melodrama. It’s sad and I hope they both get help to figure out why they’re drawn to dysfunctional relationships.
Evan likely has been the victim of abuse before. When he was a teen he did a lot of photoshoots with an photographer that later got arrested for sexual molesting the boys he was shooting with.
Emma has a coke problem and is a narcissistic idiot.
Being bipolar doesn’t make you abusive being a d-ck makes you abusive and even if she was its not an excuse.
Or maybe she’s just abusive. I am not looking for reasons why she is pointing her hands on her fiancee. There’s no excuse.
If during a argument a person gets the urge to hit someone. Maybe that relationship is not right and you should go talk to someone as to why you feel the need to get physical. Also if someone gets physical with you, definitely leave.
Life is too short to stay in a abusive relationship. Everyone deserves to be happy
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; he’s going to end up the bigger star (particularly with a bigger role in the next X-Men) and she is NOT going to take that well. He needs to get out now.
Exactly. That might have been a part of this situation. They were at Comic-Con, I’m sure he was getting a lot of love for X-Men. Maybe she got jealous?
Yup, that’s what I think too. Evan is the total opposite of this brat – he’s incredibly talented and likeable. If you’re untalented in this industry you have to know your niche very well, or otherwise you’ll be replaced by a new untalented brat. I don’t see any lasting power in Emma.
OMG it’s the end of the world!!
She needs to get into some therapy quickly. Those Roberts genes are obviously heavy on the anger.
I think because of movies like The Notebook and Fifty Shades of Grey are promoted as “passionate love stories,” is a big reason why people get, and stay in relationships like these.
Fifty is more physical while The Notebook is emotional. Not to mention a billion of movie s and books. But, this are the only ones that came straight into mind.
Thank you POE for bringing up 50 Shades. People believe that was a “healthy” love story, where I only saw abuse. That trend is terrifying. There is never an excuse to hit someone. Ever.
It needed to be said. Thank you for thanking me.
I thought the same with 50 shades. I’ve not read the whole thing nor do I ever intend to. Also, will not being seeing the film.
I can’t believe this is now making a headline. On ONTD they had video of them in the hotel lobby & she is just crying, then her manager (or someone) sees the camera. Evans is just standing there while she is being…well her. I didn’t watch all of the video (it’s about 10 minutes or so). They had the video posted a day after it happened.
Daily Mail also had a video. One of the comments was from a person trying to figure out what Evan was saying, and they thought he said “I’m leaving you” before she started to freak out.
Really? I didn’t watch the whole thing. I was going to go back at some point in the day but then decided I didn’t care enough about them! HA.
At least he knows to just walk out when she starts raging. It’s a sad situation.
This is an abusive relationship, and Evan loves her and keep thinking this is the last time, I can help me, but he can’t. I’ve been there, in his shoes, with someone who acted the same way. I hope his friends and family can persuade him to leave her for good, before it’s too late.
And, this isn’t “passionate,” it’s abusive.
Man, that “more boys” shirt… So cheesy
Seriously bad vibes from her, hope he wakes up soon and leaves her. I like him and she seems mentally unstable to say the least.
I cannot with this bratty no-talent bitch. It enrages me to hear yet another story about them like this. Evan needs to get out NOW.
I feel bad for these two. Evan seems to be the one who realizes she has problems, and is sticking around in hopes he can get her on a better path (one of controlling violent urges despite your mood), or could very well be the same way as her but just controls it better or isn’t as headline worthy as her outbursts, who knows. The majority of whats going on is behind closed doors, and some of it’s leaking out, just like with every other hard relationship. My boyfriend would do some awful things but it’s as I’m getting up as the door opens and someone walks in, but I’m the one who’s got the rage face and he’s calm at this point, to put it lightly. Sometimes it was the other way around. Hopefully they both know when enough is enough and she will truly put effort towards being healthy for both of themselves. Most would just leave, and maybe that ends up being the better choice, but I have a lot of respect for Evan as these stories come out.
I actually met her at a restaurant here in New Orleans. She was not exactly warm or friendly. Polite though. She’s really really tiny in person, which is kind of surprising to imagine someone so tiny being so aggressive and violent. Evan seems like an angel to put up with that.
Learned behavior, maybe? Emma’s father had a huge coke/rage problem back in the 80s and early 90s. He used to call escort agencies in NYC, until he got blacklisted from every agency, after he hung a girl out the window of his Broadway loft.
A part of me sadly thinks that Evan stays in this relationship because it will look embarrassing that some young woman beat him. I mean, society tells guys that they have to be “macho” and “manly men”.
But honestly, he should get out. This relationship is volatile. They both should seek some help. Emma especially.
Am I the only one that sees that Evan is obviously high on something, looks like opiates? And she is too, but it looks more like amphetamine. I know that sweaty, corpse like look of Evan too well.
Yeah I kinda see it.
I’ve thought that since he’s come on the scene. Looking at his pupils in pics and on the show, it seems he was stoned in many scenes.
At least, that’s what I’ve seen. If so, I hope he gets help before an OD, and Emma gets help, and Evan gets out.
Emma is supposedly a beyatch to work with.
And she may be little but bites HURT. And if he had them plural visibly enough to be seen and noted in a police report….That is just wrong. He needs to get out and she needs to get help. And it also doesn’t matter how little she is if he’s not going to fight back–he could be a foot taller than her and she can cause damage (and has) if he either doesn’t hit her back or get physical enough to really restrain her.
He needs to get out stat!!
Omg… She acts like such a spoiled brat… They both need some serious help… Its never okay to lay your hands on somebody else, man or woman.
One day she will attack the wrong man..
