Nadine has become a TikTok sensation after spilling the secrets of her marriage with Jordon, who she was married to for 14 years.
After they split up Nadine accused Jordan of abuse which she said was fueled by his rampant drug addiction and multiple infidelities.
Most recently, she spoke out about the ‘horrific’ part of the film that showed The Wolf of Wall Street beat his wife before attempting to steal their daughter while he was high on cocaine.
Nadine has admitted that some parts of the film aren’t true however Jordan did get violent when she revealed that she wanted to leave him.
She explained: “That scene starts with me telling Jordan that I’m going to take his children from him. That never happened.
“I never told Jordan once – when he was in jail, when he got indicted, or any other time – that I would take his children from him.”
“What actually happened was, as you see in the movie, Jordan had a severe drug addiction and I was really thinking he was going to kill himself.
“What I said to him was, “I’m not going to sit here and watch you kill yourself.” So I told him I was going to leave him unless he went to rehab.
“He lit my clothing and jewelry on fire, he threw them in the fireplace and he got really, really angry with me.
“He told me he was going to take my daughter to Florida, and I was like, “No, over my dead body.”
“At that moment, he got violent with me and he kicked me down the stairs. That was actually how that scene happened in real life.
The former model then explained that they are “good” now.
She said: “The good news is, he did get sober and I do believe it saved his life.”
