Sex, Drugs and Deception: Billy Dunne's torrid affair with "Mad Woman" Daphne Beer
What seemed like pure magic on stage — a moment where two artists were so deeply in sync that they could black out an entire stadium — was nothing more than an elaborate facade. The truth behind the spectacle is far uglier than anyone could have imagined. There's definitely no place for the Chelsea Hotel.
Billy Dunne despises Daphne Beer.
When asked if the two were involved romantically, I uncovered something far more sinister. Their supposed connection was a battleground from the start, with Beer proving herself to be a far greater catastrophe than anyone had realized.
She wasn't just an inconvenience; she was the kind of chaos that leaves scars, dragging Dunne into a war of words and bitterness behind the scenes. What was once seen as artistic chemistry now reveals itself as a volatile, toxic disaster waiting to implode.
It seems she took some lessons from felon, er... Movie Star former lover Tyler Burton.
How could anyone have been so foolish? The idea that Dunne and Beer were ever anything more than enemies is laughable, an absurd fantasy that only the most gullible could have entertained. The public was duped, seduced by the mere sight of two rockstars sharing a stage and mistaking that fleeting connection for something real. But the truth was staring everyone in the face all along: Dunne's disdain for Beer wasn't just apparent — it was palpable.
For those who bought into the rumour of an affair, every glance, every forced interaction between them was laced with barely concealed contempt. The rumors of their supposed relationship were nothing more than the desperate delusions of those who couldn't see past the glitter and the lights; well, cocaine and lights...
Anyone who believed in the fantasy of their affair was willingly blind to the truth — Dunne's hatred for Beer ran deep, poisoning every moment they shared. The idea that they could have ever been lovers is not just mistaken; it's downright delusional.
Dunne didn't hold back when discussing Beer. "She's a mad woman, she's crazy," He said, his voice dripping with disgust. "Daphne Beer is nothing but wasted talent. She's washed up, and I can't let her take the band down with her."
In a move that shocked many but surprised few who knew the truth, Dunne has tried to exile Beer from her role as guitarist in Daisy Jones and the Six. The decision, he revealed, was driven by her relentless drug and alcohol abuse, which made her "frustrating to work with" and a liability to the band's success.
But Dunne's critique didn't stop at her substance abuse. He condemned Beer's entire attitude, repeatedly emphasizing how she was a "nightmare" to work with. According to him, Beer only cared about herself, her erratic behavior and self-obsession overshadowing any shred of the once-promising talent she possessed. Her descent into madness wasn't just a personal downfall; it was a threat to everyone around her, and Dunne made it clear he was done tolerating her self-destructive spiral.
