What Happened to Melanie Martinez?
In December 2017, singer-songwriter Timothy Heller took to Twitter to accuse Melanie Martinez of assault. Martinez responded to the allegations on Twitter, stating that she was "horrified and saddened" by the accusations and denied that the relationship between them was non-consensual.
Martinez went on to say that their relationship was a close friendship, and they tried to help each other deal with their individual demons. Timothy was part of an indie-pop duo called Dresses, which opened for some of Melanie's Dollhouse Tour dates in 2014. In 2017, Timothy began a solo career with the release of a single called "Sleep."
