Now this is something you don’t normally hear from a daytime television star, let alone anyone in the general public unless they happen to be a really good friend. General Hospital alum John Stamos went OFF on his ex-wife Rebecca Romnijn by calling her the devil. If that weren’t enough, he also says that he absolutely hated her during their divorce process. Here’s what he has to say.
General Hospital Alum John Stamos Slammed For Calling His Ex-Wife The Devil
Speaking to People in a new interview, John opened up about his divorce from Rebecca for the first time. The ex-couple pulled the plug on their marriage in 2005 after five years together. He said, “I just hated her. “I couldn’t believe how much I hated her, and it ruined my life.”
He also said that their split was earth-shattering for him and that it went on for way too long. He said, “You start thinking, it’s like, ‘Oh, she wasn’t the devil. Maybe I was as much to blame as her. It was very much the opinion that she dumped me because her career was going great and mine wasn’t. I don’t blame her for it. It was just the perception that people took. Maybe they weren’t wrong. She was doing great at that time and I wasn’t.”
John is currently promoting his new memoir, If You Could Have Told Me. However, some people think he should have kept these comments to himself. Some critics sounded off with, “Pretty sure it was you, dude. She married Jerry O’Connell who wasn’t exactly on the A-list. He’s less attractive and notoriously thrifty. Guess he just had a better personality and wasn’t so threatened,” along with, “Wonder what Jerry O’Connell thinks about John’s portrayal of Rebecca? Although John has every right to say what his relationship with Rebecca felt like or was like, he should remember that Rebecca has 2 teenaged twin daughters.”

Another critic wrote, “I think the worst thing to do is to air-out your previous missteps as it relates to past relationships. It’s just not healthy for your current relationship or that of your previous spouse. Don’t rehash old feelings, live in the moment you have now, and take the lessons of the past with you.”
