Lemus claims Ruiz sexually assaulted, abused and terrorized her during their relationship. per TMZ.

Ruiz’s ex-wife also claims he pointed an AK-47 at her face last year after she said she was uncomfortable with a recent gun purchase he made.

Lemus also claims that Ruiz began sexually assaulting her last year, forcing himself on her at least six times.

Lemus was granted a temporary restraining order after the initial allegations. Ruiz vehemently denied the claims, sparking a lawsuit between the parties to determine whether a permanent restraining order should be entered.

Both Ruiz and Lemus testified before a judge, as did witnesses, with the judge ruling in Lemus’ favor on April 8.

A restraining order will be in place for three years, with Lemus able to extend the request before the agreement expires on April 8, 2027.

The judge who handed down the ruling, Sharon L. Kalemkiarian, stated in court filings that she found evidence showing that Lemus “is in fear as a result of Mr. Ruiz’s aggressive, demeaning and controlling behavior,” according to TMZ.

‘Mr. Ruiz did in fact assault her,” Kalemkiarian added, “disturbing her peace and exerting coercive control throughout the relationship.”

The protective order includes a number of parameters, including requiring Ruiz to stay 300 feet away from Lemus, her home, her job and her vehicle, according to TMZ.

Ruiz was also banned from having weapons and ordered to take a 12-week anger management course.

Ruiz has not commented publicly on the report. His last social media post was a video of his new partner, Mayeli Alonso, announcing her pregnancy in March.

Kalemkiarian also gave Lemus sole custody of the couple’s two children, with Ruiz allowed to have supervision over them.
