Danielle Mason Accuses Ex-Fiancé of Attack, Shares Injuries on Instagram

Danielle Mason, 42, half-sister of EastEnders star Jessie Wallace, has accused her ex-fiancé Lee Dopson, 45, of physically attacking her after their engagement party in November 2024. The reality TV personality, known for My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, shared graphic images of her injuries on Instagram alongside details of their legal battle, including a non-molestation order she recently obtained against him.

The alleged incident occurred following a lavish engagement party at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Wokingham. Danielle told the Daily Mail that Lee’s social media posts prompted her to speak out. Lee, a garden landscaper, posted a video montage showing his own bruises, which Danielle claims resulted from her acting in self-defense.

The pair began dating in 2023 after meeting during a school run. They split in May 2024, with Danielle announcing she was “entering a new chapter.” However, she refrained from discussing the breakup until this week. In her Instagram Stories, Danielle accused Lee of violating the court-issued non-molestation order, which prohibits contact, harassment, or intimidation.

Danielle, a mother of two, described feeling compelled to address the situation after Lee’s posts painted him as “an innocent party.” She revealed she declined to press criminal charges but pursued the court order for protection. “I’m happy to speak out all truths,” she stated, criticizing those who support abusers to “keep face.”

A non-molestation order in the UK bars respondents from threatening or contacting the applicant. Danielle urged others in abusive situations to find strength, stating, “So many women don’t speak out… but the truth needs to be heard.”
