A honeymoon trip to Fiji turned a nightmare for the couple after it left the wife dead and the husband behind bars. Now, the ex-girlfriend of Bradley Robert Dawson, 38, accused of killing his wife Christe Chen Dawson, has come out to reveal some hair-raising secrets of his past life.

During an exclusive interview with ‘Good Morning America’, Bradley’s ex-lover Kristen Baker spoke candidly about their toxic relationship and Bradley’s violent behavior towards her. “We fell madly in love, and it was intense and fast,” Baker said, adding that the relationship ultimately turned violent when he pushed her. “When I really did want to leave him. He did push me down once on the bed and chased me. He was very verbally manipulative and threatening and jealous,” she added.

Further, Baker revealed a year after Bradley’s toxic behavior they broke up for good. Soon after Bradley moved on to marry someone in 2019 but even that marriage didn’t last long, per an ABC 24 report. Then Bradley married his second wife, Christe Chen, around a month after the divorce was finalized.

The Memphis couple decided to tie the knot back in February but it was only recently when the couple took a short-lived honeymoon vacation to Fiji. But the honeymoon took a tragic turn when Chen was found dead in the bungalow bathroom. As per the post-mortem exam viewed by DailyMail, Chen had multiple brutal injuries on her body and blunt force trauma to the head.

Her husband, an IT professional who used a kayak to flee away from the crime scene, was arrested after 36 hours of his wife’s body being found by the housekeeper. While he has been detained by the officials for murdering his wife, he is maintaining his innocence and claims that the death of Chen was just an accident. Iqbal Khan, Bradley’s attorney, told FOX 13 that he could not confirm how she died but did say that his client maintains his innocence.

“There is no way he can be convicted of murder. No way. Full stop,” Khan reportedly said. “On the evidence that they have presented so far, there’s no proof of the charge of murder with the intention to kill or premeditation. Nothing of that sort whatsoever.”

A report by Daily Mail revealed that Christe was drunk and had an abusive argument with her husband for dancing inappropriately with someone else at the party before she was found dead slumped in the toilet. The death of Chen came as a shock to all of her friends. Her friends who’ve described Chen as “super-sweet” and “kind,” expressed their fear to DailyMail. One of Chen’s close friends, Rena Schomburg, said, "I just texted all my friends and my husband telling them I hope it's not real but my husband told me it is real. She was so excited to get married and to have babies."
