Jesse James Cheated On Kat Von D With 19 Women. The two formally engaged couple called it quits for a second time back in September. Von D had canceled interviews and mainly kept to herself about the breakup. Now revealing that she is bitter and scorned she has decided to write an essay on her personal Facebook page about the relationship and how she feels about it all.

She starts off by stating, “Never have I felt so strong about True Love, than I do today. I believe in Love more than anything else, and more than ever before. Today I encountered the 19th girl to add to the list of people Jesse cheated on me with during this last year. I kept going back and forth in my mind as to what the best way would be for me to release and let go of any residual feelings remaining from that toxic relationship. All of this may sound petty or immature to some, but I assure you this is coming from a place of pure honesty and love.”

Von D pours her heart and soul into her writing, “There was a time when I was confident and excited at proving the world wrong, because I believed so deeply in people’s ability to change for the better. Although this was not a primary purpose in the relationship, I did feel like it would be a positive thing for those who judged Jesse solely based on what they read in tabloids, to see that change is always possible – even in the people who seem hopeless. I still believe that, even if that change never occurs inside of him – because I see proof of change everyday – in others, and in myself.”

Von D also goes on to talk about how she is working on herself to make herself a better person. She states, “It’s a daily practice, but it’s working.”
As for those who are probably saying that they knew he will cheat on her too, Von D has some words for you, “I know I deserve a big fat “I told you so,” from everyone, and wish I didn’t have to say, “You all were more right than you’ll ever know” but you were.”

Growing tired of being mistaken for the chick who broke up Sandra Bullock and Jesse James marriage, she shares, “Yes, I am pretty tired of getting mistaken for the girl who everyone believes to have broken up Jesse and Sandra’s marriage, just because I have black hair and tattoos like that other gal. That does get a quite annoying at times, and it would be nice to not be associated with her, but that’s trivial in the grand scheme of things.”

Von D wishes that James would stop cheating and learn to become a better man, “I think it just made me sad today to imagine him still in that dark place – where seeking validation through the attention of women takes precedence over being a good father, a sincere friend, a better coworker, and a happy individual.”

The reason for her to write all of this heartfelt and private information is about “making peace with myself, and forgiving myself for making some bad mistakes.”

Von D took the time to thank James for making her realize and learn about relationships, “Time is something you can never get back, and what we do with this very present moment is the most real thing we have. So if that’s the lesson Jesse forced me to face and learn by all of this, than all I can say is Thank You.”
