Soap star Hunter Tylo’s real life is far more dramatic than anything you’d see on daytime TV. The actress is getting ready to marry boyfriend Corey Cofield, even though she once took out a restraining order against him for violence against her and two of her children. Sources say the “Bold and the Beautiful” actress has “forgiven” Cofield and believes him when he says it won’t happen again.
Although she accused the 39-year-old bass guitarist of terrorizing her children and forcing her to have sex, she’s now forgiven him, say friends, and the couple plans to marry.
The ENQUIRER has learned that The Bold and the Beautiful star isn’t the first woman to seek protection from Corey – his former live-in lover, Georgia Ginsberg, also accused him of domestic abuse. Georgia, who has a child with Corey, filed for a restraining order against him in January, while he was living with Hunter.
After years of heartache, Hunter, 46, was said to be overjoyed when she first hooked up with Corey.
But according to the restraining order she took out against him, he “snuck in the house in order to trap me upstairs” after she told him to leave on April 16, 2008. “When I tried to go past him, he violently grabbed my wrist, and as I tried to get free, he grabbed my neck tightly and said, ‘I’m not going to go away that easy.'”
She said that earlier that same month he “locked the bedroom door after I caught him in a lie about another woman and forced me to have sex saying, ‘Tell me you love me. Say it like you mean it.'” Court records describe how her daughters – Izabella, 12, and Katya, 11 – were left “visibly shaking” after he “disciplined” them while she was at work.
Corey denied all the allegations, but the judge granted the restraining order. In October, Hunter had the order lifted, saying that he’d been taking parenting classes and attending family and couple’s therapy.
“He has demonstrated a commitment to keeping peace in the family,” she said at the time.
While Hunter and Corey haven’t yet set a wedding date, sources close to the couple say the big day could come soon.
“Hunter has shocked everyone by going back to Corey,” added the source.
This, to me, is even more alarming than the Chris Brown/Rihanna reconciliation, because there are children involved. I really have to wonder what the hell this woman is thinking. This guy sounds totally creepy and I don’t see how a few parenting classes and family therapy is going to change that. You would think that protecting her daughters would be priority one for Hunter, who lost her son in a drowning accident in 2007.

Poor woman.
Wow i really hope this woman come’s to her sense’s for her children’s sake they’ve been through so much losing their older brother & now getting an abusive step father
How dare she? She simply does not have the RIGHT to endanger her children like that. She should lose custody over this.
Selfish, stupid bitch.
OMG… this just sickens me. How/why is it that people who seem to have their sh1t together always end up being the most insecure type of crazy. This is nuts. This woman has 4 children – although I think one of those is/was the one who died, so now she has 3. One of those children is a special needs child….. what a fool.
I agree, this is worse than the Rhianna situation because those kids can’t defend themselves. Look how big he is to begin with… I bet he looks terrifying when he’s enraged.
And another thing… where’s their dad in all of this? If I were him, this guy would NOT be living with my kids. Why doesn’t he take out a restraining order in their behalf?
Has it ever occured with anyone that Michael knew all about this and this was all settled out of the publics eye to keep gossips from finding out what really happened.
Those kids do not look happy at all!
Yes, RAN – where’s the daddy? He can’t make his ex leave her abuser, but he can CETAINLY make sure those children are not around him by claiming sole custody. At least that’s what I would expect a responsible father to do.
sauvage-Michael did know all about it,that’s why it was handled out of the publics eye and away from everyone.including the court system.
Exactly Sauvage – I hope he steps up
This is a zillion shades more disturbing than Chris/Rhi – and for more reasons than the kids (a big reason in itself). I agree violence is never okay, but it’s never been disputed that Rhi was fighting too. She had the opportunity to leave (he tried to make her leave is car) but she would NOT GO. Her obstinate behavior didn’t help her situation. Let’s just put it this way: she wasn’t running for her life.
In Hunter’s situation, she made him leave, extricated herself – and he broke back into her house like the true predator that he is.
I really wish she would stay away from him for her sake AND for the children. I could see if he was their father, there would be a need to seek family therapy to try and recover and keep the family together – but come on! He’s just a passing boyfriend, Hunter!
UGH
She’s got some major self-esteem issues. Also explains the great amount of plastic surgery and botox.
…is the abusive fellow the one who made poor hunter’s face look so odd? she used to be so gorgeous, now she just looks like when they implanted the collagen and lifted the brow, they took her self esteem. poor lady.
BAD, BAD mother!! When you have kids, they become your first priority. Her abusive love life seems to be it.
Please, lady, think about your daughters. Abusers *never* change.
He will stay quiet for a year or two at most, and then…
sad
CiCi, what are you talking about? Have you even bothered to read the police report in the Rihanna case?
Are you saying that a woman who shows “obstinate behavior” deserves to be punched in the face?
It’s that misconception that makes it easy for men to get away with violence. “She was asking for it.”
Sick!
Terrible…So freaking sad. 🙁 Wonder what its going to take for her to wake up.
(side note…what is up with her toes?)
is rihanna gonna be the maid of honor?
seriously, this dumbass is asking to be murdered in her sleep…
if not by her o.j. of a boyfriend, then by her creepy looking blonde kid on the left (who looks a lil traumatized).
is it me, or doesn’t that kid look EX-ACTLY like young michael meyers?!
That was her daughter Izabella and Bella just had her hair in her eyes.Get over it!
@ Samantha:
(side note…what is up with her toes?)
________________________________________
he probably beats up on those too…but, only when she’s been good. 🙁
where’s michael tylo in all this. he’s the father of the kids, right? i would think if his kids were around some guy that had a bunch of restraining orders against him he’d have custody of them if their mother continued to stay in the relationship. scary stuff! 😮
her kids look like miniature angelina jolies!!!
That just does not sound like a good scenario at all.
Hunter has pretty much cut her ex husband out of the equation. I don’t know when the last time he saw his kids was. I wouldn’t be hard on Michael Tylo in this.
what a complete whackadoodle.
She used to be so beautiful and now she’s just an over the hill soap star who is endangering the welfare of her children. No more beauty, definitely no brains!
This is beyond sad – Hunter must have really low self-esteem, and is being very foolish. Her children are going to suffer greatly; abusers are manipulative con-artists, and rarely change. Intervention please.
MSat, no one deserves to be punched in the face, ever. And yes, I’ve read the report.
I was just saying – as i have in many other posts regarding Rhi – that she wasn’t exactly trying to escape. I am not saying she “asked for it” but I have always maintained that she was NOT some cowering flower. It is my belief that these two got into a trashy fist fight. It happens all the time between men and women who have no control over themselves. It’s not right, but it happens. In my opinion, a situation like that differs from an abused woman trying desperately to extricate herself, cowering to someone who is beating her.
Like I said – it’s my opinion, you can take it or leave it.
Cici, Rhianna had bite marks on her ears and fingers because of the defensive position she took in trying to protect her face. He beat her brutally long after she stopped fighting, getting her in a head lock and strangling her to the point of unconsciousness. I don’t really know what your ideas of a “truly” battered woman are, but Rhianna IS a battered woman, whether she ran or not. The definition of battered woman is that you are battered. Period.
As for the kids bio father, judging by her taste in men, he might just not care.
It happens all the time.
Prayers for those kids. I just don’t see someone who has visted that kind of violence (umm, rape? this guy is seriously fucked up) on another person as willing to change. When was the last time you heard of a reformed rapist?
J Ferber – by your definition, then, Chris is a battered male, as well – as Rhi has gotten her fair share of beating on him, too.
I never said that the whole thing didn’t get WAY out of hand. I never said it wasn’t abusive. The whole situation is WRONG in all ways, I agree.
Yes, at the point where she is headlocks, she is completely submissive; i realize that. All I said was she was not a defenseless puppy from the get go and COULD have left. Both of them paticipated in violence that neither deserved.
Sad … one anger management class is not enough to change behavior.
I hope the father goes for custody of the kids, they do not belong in a home with an abuser.
SICK PATHETIC and horrible.. why would she be with a sick monster??????
Disgusting..
@CiCi-save your breath, Dear. I agree with you completely about Chris Brown and Rihanna. That, yes, he was wrong for fighting with her. But that she was no cowering flower and was just as physically violent as he was. But we are in the minority on this one.
Some of these people are so self-righteous! Like there is no possible way that any woman can initiate a fight. This is not the first time we’ve heard that she became physically violent with him. I had just read a story earlier that week that she saw pics of him dancing with a girl in a club and became violent. But the story was reported like the image of little Princess Rihanna beating up on a grown man was FUNNY. It was funny to people until he retaliated (not that that makes him right-it just doesn’t make her a helpless victim).
As far as Hunter Tylo, she’s had so many publicized relationships that it’s bordering on sad. She was dating Lorenzo Lamas right before this guy. And the only stories we’ve heard of this guy is that he’s a monster. I pray she wises up soon.
J Ferber, Rihanna had bite marks because Chris was trying to defend himself while she was gouging at his eyes.
@Ummm-EXACTLY!!!!!!
CiCi you sound like a moron.
Wonder how you’d feel if it was your daughter or sister
*smdh*
@ Truth-I wonder how you’d feel if your brother or son was being smacked around by his girlfriend and out of frustration, defended himself-then went to jail for it.
CiCi is not a moron. It’s clearly stated that Chris Brown was WRONG. All CiCi is saying is that Rihanna is not 100% right either.
You sound judgemental, shallow, and closed-minded.
where is the kids’ biological father – does he not care that his kids are being abused? aren’t there any grandparents or someone who can step in and take these kids? if hunter wants to marry an abusive guy that is her business, but she should not have custody if those kids. that is really fucked up.
Hell, it IS wrong for a woman to get violent with a man. I hate the way it’s always portrayed as a joke. Whatever Hunter Tylo’s problem is, I hope she someday gets over it.
Blondie: Being the mom to a son I know exactly what I would think, and probably do, in that situation. It’s not pretty or reasonable, I can assure you.
thanks, blondie. honestly, everyone is way too black and white on this.
truth: if it was my daughter, i would tell her to get the fck out of such a notoriously volatile relationship before something bad happens. i’m sorry but rhi and chris had a trashy fist fight — in which she was very much a participant — until she was subdued. and yes, chris became enraged and went way over the line in subduing, but i guarantee she would have continued to whale on him had he not put a stop to it.
the bottom line is they both have serious issues. if my daughter was beating on men and in a volatile relationship such as this, she would have issues and need help, too.
Exactly, I personally know a female who used to hit her boyfriend. He never hit her back. However, when she attempted to attack him with a knife he pushed her off and she fell into a table. She called the police, pressed charges, and HE went to jail for nearly 2 years. What’s worse, imagine how hard it was for him to obtain employment with that on his background. Everyone judged him and drew their own conclusions without asking his side…sound familiar?
I understand the power an abusive man can have over a woman but she should be looking out for the best interest of her children always. I hope the father intervenes and gets custody.
Also Ed Hardy is soooo trashy looking.
Why are people commenting on HT’s looks or her little girl’s looks??? WTH,You should be more worried about the fate of these lil children living in an abusive environment than about whether mom has had plastic surgery/breast implants, who the h^3l cares about that!!
And yeah where is Michael Tylo to protect his two daughters?
“Ummm,” she was gouging his eyes in self-defense… so his bites were self-defense in response to HER self-defense!
As for Hunter Tylo, I hope the father can get involved in this situation and protect his children.
she sounds dickmatized. sad.
Sarcra, if both were acting in self defense, then who was fighting?
MSat, the police report was one side’s version of the events. Who reports a story to make their own self look bad?
so terrified for these girls. i really hope their father can get custody of them.
Okay, if Chris Brown is also a victim, a battered man, I’d like to see a picture of his face looking like a side of beef, too. In New York City it used to be that in a domestic violence case, the man could get the woman arrested if he had even a scratch mark on him. Now the police look at the extent of the injuries. So if the man has a scratch and the woman has visible bruises, bleeding, etc., she will not be arrested on his word. So I guess at his trial, he’ll have his own pics of his gouged-out eyes and can explain how he acted in self-defense, and that the whole thing “got out of hand” and she was partially to blame anyway. Judging by these posts, he’ll have enough sympathizers to be acquitted. Yuck.
Rack off Cici…take your garbage somewhere else.
Its Hunter’s kids I feel sorry for…its never ok and going back is not a good idea…and I don’t care how many classes or therapy he takes or gets
See she used to be married to that Blade guy, the photographer who was actually identical tiwns. One was evil of course. Once that happens in your life, you’ll accept anything.
twins
yeesh 🙂
I guess Michael Tylo is too busy with his new wife Rachelle to care about the welfare of the two little girls he has with Hunter? So typical, I just pray we don’t see these girls on an episode of INTERVENTION in the future because of all this.
why would Hunter want to marry a man who has never paid to raise either one of his two kids. The first child was supported by his parents and the second he owes a lot of back child support. Hunter supports Mr. Cofield so he does not have to pay his child support.
I feel sorry for Hunters kids to. Mr Cofield only abuses other peoples kids.
Those kids needs protection, and they all need help.
The fact that he basically raped her gives me chills… O.J. part II
She already lost her son. Why would she jeopardize her remaining kids & allow them to be under the same roof with that creep! Michael needs to take those kids from Hunter. Unfit mother! As a mother, you want to protect your kids & not expose them to someone like that creep! Not for anything, but I would break his hands if he ever lifted a finger to my kids! That alone, should be reason enough to have him out of her life! Stupid, stupid lady!
Good Lord! When will women put their children first instead of their sexual needs?
It’s called “Battered Women Syndrome”
A person loses one’s sense of self due to ongoing emotional abuse (probably throughout her life from parents to partners).
Educate yourself before writing your blog & comments.
Hunter must not know any different about the domestic abuse-people know that her first husband used to beat and slap on her when they lived back in Texas.Hunter should know better by now but some women never learn and the kids are the ones it hurts the most.
She is so fake looking and desperate to be with an ugly guy like that. Was this the only guy available guy in CA? He will probably rape her again and the kids. Never thought she would end up like a Nicole Simpson. Attracted to some black who wants to screw white women whwever they please. Very disappointed in her. Can’t ever look at her the same way again. Pure trash!
Wow, some of these comments were a little harsh. Trash? really? I am terrafied for these girls but us calling her names and saying stupid imature things will not help. The only thing we can do is hope that she comes to her sences sooner than latter and pray for her and the girls. I can understand forgiving him, God teaches us to forgive as he forgives us but that dose not mean that she has to have him back in her life and again we need to pray for her. I hope we dont go on to read about her death or the death of another one of her children to the hands of this person who I very loosley call a man.
She seems like a great lady (my fav character in B&B) and it’s such a shame. There’s plenty of men out there, why the hell a dickhead like Corey?!. I’m seriously wondering why she’s excepting this.
Its a shame when bad things happens to good people. All abusers should be thrown onto an electric chair.
Hi, Tyler I pray u wake up n smell da coffee, it don’t get no better it gets worst. The heart will fool U, your such a pretty lady, I kno ur smart, so use ur mind, especially for ur kids sake. I tell you bad will come out of this, He will give lies after lies until he become violent once again, I will pray for you, ok
she needs to get a back bone.Thats one weak woman.That’s the same guy that spent all her cash.Next will come sexual abuse of her kids
