American Kay Hansen, formerly of the UFC's flyweight division, confessed to being sexually abused by her father for years.
Kay Hansen
My successes and struggles have all been in the public eye for many years, but everyone has a story behind the scenes. I was raped/SA [sexually assaulted] by my father as a teenager for years. Fighting/training was my escape, and the only form of reality I really had control over. I never spoke up about the abuse I endured due to the fear of repercussions that may follow.
Hansen last stepped into the octagon against Piera Rodriguez in April of this year at UFC 273. Kay lost that fight to her opponent by unanimous decision. She has seven wins and six losses in mixed martial arts.
