McCrary, 43, however, has denied the allegations. He has claimed in his request for a restraining order that it was Brawner who abused him. He said that she had threatened him with a knife on one occasion and that on Feb. 10, Brawner had turned verbally abusive and attacked him with a flat iron. He said in his hand-written filing requesting a stay-away order,

“The hot flat iron burned my chest with a visible inch-and-a-half, 2nd or 3rd-degree red burn mark on the right said,”

Adding,

“She has been verbally abusive and degrading to me as a man. She has told me no one would believe me and has told me this would be the outcome if I did not comply,”

McCrary portrayed as the oldest son of Eddie Winslow on “Family Matters” during the hit sitcom’s decade-long run on ABC and later CBS. He reportedly called the police three times to deal with his wife’s alleged behavior.

“(She) needs mental treatment and help to process her emotions and channel her anger and disappointment better. In addition, she is desperate for stardom and I don’t want Zoey neglected while she chases a dream. Her jealous and competitive nature may interfere with her judgments,”

he said.

Both parties ultimately received mutual restraining orders, with a judge ordering Brawner to stay away from McCrary’s apartment in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Canoga Park.

“It is my residence. She does not live with me and does not pay any bills at this residence. We have not lived together for over three months,”

McCrary wrote in his filing signed Feb. 12.
