Kelley Wolf Apologizes for August Incident, Cites Drug-Induced Psychosis

Kelley Wolf has issued an apology and explanation for her actions last August, which led to a court-issued restraining order against her. In an Instagram statement released on August 29, the "Real World: New Orleans" alum detailed that after a year of intensive professional help, including work with doctors, therapists, psychologists, and healers, she has gained clarity on the events that resulted in her being prohibited from contacting her three children with ex-husband Scott Wolf: Jackson, 17, Miller, 13, and Lucy, 12. Wolf, 49, described her mental state at the time as feeling "hijacked" and experiencing the world at an overwhelming "freight train" speed. She stated that she had "no awareness of my actions" and was "completely delusional" as the situation reached a critical point. She characterized the episode as "breakthrough drug-induced mania with psychosis," an experience she had not encountered before. Wolf attributed this state to a combination of stress, past trauma, hormonal shifts, and the interaction of hallucinogens with prescribed medications, calling it a "perfect storm." She extended an apology to Scott Wolf for subjecting him to a "nightmare that wouldn’t even fly in a movie script," acknowledging the profound difficulty of the struggle and the pain she inflicted. Wolf stated, "My brain turned on me," and admitted that in her illness, she made accusations and engaged in behaviors that now cause her distress. She reflected on her lifelong belief in "love, hope, kindness, and compassion," contrasting it with the "cruel. Vicious. Mean." person she became during that period. The statement also touched upon a prior belief she held, though the details of this belief were not fully elaborated in the provided text. The incident that led to the restraining order involved an attempt by Kelley Wolf to enter the home of her ex-husband, actor Scott Wolf, and their children. The legal action prevented her from contacting the three children she shares with Scott Wolf. Kelley Wolf's public statement marks her first detailed explanation of the circumstances surrounding the restraining order, offering insight into her personal health struggles and the factors she believes contributed to her behavior.
