A Real Housewife of Potomac has come forward with explosive allegations against her estranged husband including claims that he preyed on her when she was a young dancer, abused her, and “threatened her existence.”
“I’m tired of protecting a predator, one who pays for sexual favors, who preys on young women and master manipulates them into sex slaves,” wrote the Bravolebrity in a lengthy post.

In a series of recent posts on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), Mia Thornton opened up about the emotional and psychological toll her marriage to Gordon Thornton has taken on her while praising her “safe space”, her rekindled flame, Inc.
Mia revealed in her Instagram post that she first met Gordon at The Men’s Club Charlotte when she was just 19, and he was a frequent customer who spent lavishly. “Naturally, I was fresh bait,” she wrote. She alleged that Gordon manipulated her into believing he was a successful and influential figure when that was far from the case.
“He masterminded and manipulated me into thinking he was this successful and powerful pillar in the community,” wrote Mia. “Maybe he once was, but his bones were buried deep. He won me in by showing interest in a charity organization that I was affiliated with and connected me with prominent people in the city.”
She went on to say that when she attempted to distance herself from Gordon early in their relationship, he allegedly began stalking her, showing up at her home unannounced, and pressured her into compliance.
“He told me if I didn’t follow his guidance, I would never amount to anything,” said Mia.
She added that Gordon said he was looking for a woman who would make him a “kept man” and said he taught her the ways of business so she could “be his worker.”

After at first being proud of running a multi-million dollar business at just 24 years old, Mia said that things went left because Gordon “didn’t know when to stop spending” or “buying women” and he allegedly cheated on her with her friend in their house.
That pivotal moment apparently drove her back to her first love, Inc.
“After walking in on him having sex and making out with a friend of mine in our home I soon decided that this wsas not what I wanted nor deserved,” wrote Mia. “So I followed my heart and ran back to my love INC. Inc has been and will always be my safe place.
According to Mia, Gordon went nuclear and “threatened her existence” before telling her he was bankrupt and begging her to stay to help. Now, however, the #RHOP star says she’s finished and she’s taking a defiant stance.
“It took me over a decade to gain the confidence and independence to live life on my terms,” she wrote. “I’m tired of protecting a predator, one who pays for sexual favors, who preys on young women and master manipulates them into sex slaves. I’m setting myself free and while I still haven’t told all, I guarantee you he will not win this time,” she concluded.

One of the first to comment on the post encouraged Mia to delete her post for the sake of her kids and said she should be like her #RHOP cast mates and express herself less on social media.
“I’m not my castmates ,” responded Mia. “My young children don’t have social. Third. It’s my IG and I live a God driven life.”
Another one added that Mia should be conscious that her children will see her allegations against their father and will know they “weren’t made in love.” To that she responded;
“People use sperm donors all the time. That doesn’t mean the children are not made with love.”
When another alleged that Mia stayed with Gordon until his money ran out, she replied;
“No when I began to heal. Money Ran dry a year after Marriage. I stayed for another 10 years…so praying for you as well Queen.”
On X, Mia also posed a question to her followers about an ex-husband reuqesting alimony.
“Question for the people. Should a wife who worked during her entire marriage be responsible for paying her soon to be ex-husband alimony because he’s 30+ years older than her and says he can’t find a job,” wrote Mia.
