Jimmie Allen, the renowned country music artist, has admitted to a two-year relationship with his former female manager. However, she asserts that what transpired was sexual assault, not a consensual affair. In an unexpected twist, Allen attributes the fallout and subsequent allegations to the pressures and enticements within the music industry.

This admission comes on the heels of Allen's pregnant wife, Alexis Gale, filing for divorce. Around the same time, the 'Best Shot' crooner was served with a civil lawsuit by his ex-manager, known only as 'Jane Doe.' She alleges that Allen raped her and then filmed the non-consensual act as leverage to keep her silent.

Allen, 38, defends his actions, arguing that the sex was consensual. He has tendered an apology to his wife for his missteps, attributing them to the strain associated with his burgeoning fame.

"The music business extracts a significant toll," laments the 'Make Me Want To' singer, who has been ousted from his record label following the controversy. "It's replete with pitfalls that can undermine you and destroy everything you've strived for. It's disheartening to admit that I failed to resist them. I refuse to remain a casualty of my own shortcomings."

Furthermore, Allen has publicly minimized the significance of the civil lawsuit filed by his ex-manager. He describes it as a ploy for financial gain, asserting on social media that "This too shall pass."

However, a source close to the country music scene suggests that Allen's cavalier approach may be his undoing.

"Jimmie's confidants have advised him to maintain silence and let the storm pass," reveals the insider. "He appears oblivious to the seriousness of his predicament and the potential repercussions."

The source further added, "His tendency is to confront issues head-on - a testament to his characteristic grit. However, in this case, it seems like he's living in a fantasy!"
