Michael Madsen's shocking claim against ex after son's suicide
Share this @internewscast.com

A startling legal document has come back into focus following Michael Madsen’s death, in which he blamed his ex-wife, DeAnna, for pushing their young son towards suicide.

The September 2024 filing said starkly: ‘I have been separated from the Respondent since my son’s death by suicide on 1/25/22. 

‘I believe Respondent drove him to this by her neglect, drinking and alcoholism.’

Madsen, who passed away from cardiac arrest in Malibu on Thursday at the age of 67, was referencing his son Hudson, who tragically ended his own life in Hawaii in January 2022 at merely 26 years old.

‘Respondent also significantly contributed to my personal issues as well,’ Madsen continued in the filing.

‘I am caught in an abusive, co-dependent, and harmful relationship, which led to the Respondent breaking into my home and having me unjustly arrested for domestic violence (DV).

‘Once the cell bars close on you, it’s the final curtain on any marriage of relationship, and mine was no exception.’

Madsen, who started in a slew of huge hits including Pulp Fiction, Thelma & Louise, Reservoir Dogs and Kill Bill, later appeared to regret the scorched-earth blast against Deanna.

Posting on Instagram on October 2024, he backtracked on claims DeAnna was to blame for Hudson’s death and dismissed them as ‘magazine rumors.’

A month later, Madsen took to Instagram to deny the allegations he’d made himself and dismissed them as magazine gossip

Madsen did so despite his own filing blaming DeAnna.

He added: ‘I was and not the writer of this story and wish my wife no harm or embarrassment

‘Losing a child is the hardest and most painful experience that can happen in this world. I deeply apologize for not correcting this earlier but I love my wife and our other 4 children and have no desire for divorce or blame. 

‘She had absolutely nothing to do with what happened to our son. It was a horrible loss and choice that was made for reasons that truly cannot ever be known because the person is gone, I don’t think my son is dead , I think he escaped from a life that didn’t make sense anymore. 

‘The media can spread lies and conflict and rarely will mention the truth or the way I’ve stated the things addressed in this Post.’  

DeAnna and Madsen wed in 1996 and had three sons – Luke, Kalvin and Hudson.

Madsen filed for divorce in September 2024, with that filing including the blistering statement accusing DeAnna of driving Hudson to take his own life.

The divorce does not appear to have been finalized by the time of Madsen’s death.

He’d previously married Cher’s half-sister Georganne LaPiere between 1984 and 1988, as well as Jeanninee Bisignano between 1991 and 1995.

Madsen and Jeannine had two sons together, Christian and Max.

DailyMail.com contacted DeAnna by phone on Thursday after news of Madsen’s death emerged.

Her mother took the call and said DeAnna did not wish to make any statement. 

Madsen was deeply affected by Hudson’s death.

The troubled star was arrested for DUI twice for DUI in March 2012 was arrested for domestic violence over claims he’d fought with one of his sons while drunk.

It is unclear which of his children he was accused of brawling with.  

Madsen was the brother of celebrated actress Virginia Madsen, best known for her roles in Sideways and Candyman. 

Paying tribute to Madsen Thursday, Virginia told Variety: ‘My brother Michael has left the stage.

‘He was thunder and velvet. 

‘Mischief wrapped in tenderness. A poet disguised as an outlaw. 

‘A father, a son, a brother — etched in contradiction, tempered by love that left its mark.’
