The retired escort, whose real name is Amanda Drago, told BuzzFeed News — well, she told BuzzFeed News a whole fuckin' lot.
By now you might have seen, or been sent, Amanda Drago's spirited Instagram tribute to her former sugar daddy on the one-year anniversary of his untimely death.
The post has gone hugely viral and is loaded with a wild Mad Libs of details and information.
In a long caption, Drago — whose porn name is Melina Mason and pen name is Lydia Dupra — details the nature of their "incredibly toxic relationship" and a scary encounter with whippits, and claims that his ghost is haunting her. (If you haven't yet, pause here to read it in its entirety.)
People's jaws dropped and no one was really sure where to begin. But Drago patiently fielded a lot of questions from BuzzFeed News about her Instagram post, so we'll allow her to help you grapple with the story of the...unique love affair.
According to the 28-year-old LA-based retired porn star and escort, here's everything you need to know:
Some of the first words he said to her were, "You're not the girl I ordered."
Despite the mix-up, Brad had taken a liking to Drago, and their sugar baby–sugar daddy relationship began.
"Shortly after we met, he propositioned me to be his sugar baby. We were on and off for over five years," she said.
Drago had a boyfriend, who she said understood the terms of this arrangement. But besides him and a few close friends, she said she mostly kept her and Brad's relationship secret, explaining that she was "embarrassed" by it.
“I never glamorized being a sugar baby," Drago said. "I wanted to be financially independent.”
However, she said, "It was just so much freaking money, how can you say no?"
She and Brad would talk every day, she said, but would only see each other a couple of times each week. She described Brad to BuzzFeed News as annoying and the "bane of [her] existence." But she said she continued the on-again-off-again relationship because of the large sums of money he would deposit into her bank account, which afforded her luxuries like designer shoes, a Birkin bag, and a race horse.
During a period of their relationship, Drago said, "Brad was in a depression" and heavily using drugs, including canned nitrous oxide, also known as whippits.
At one point, she said, Brad demanded sex and she turned him down.
"We were sitting on the couch and having this mindless conversation — I’m totally sober — and I said, 'Brad I think I’m going to go,' and he said, 'I want to have sex,' and I said, “I’m not having sex with you in this state — you haven’t showered for days."
She claimed that Brad "got really mad" and accused her of abandoning him. Eventually, she said, the encounter turned "scary," so she decided to take off her heels and run. He chased after her, but because a driver was always parked in front of Brad's house, Drago said she was able to hop in the car and tell the driver to speed away.
Drago said she broke things off with Brad after that, and he had apparently retaliated by taking her out of his will. She swore she'd never see him again.
"We were texting the day before [his death]," Drago said. "He was going to send me to this spa and I was waiting for the money to hit my account."
She never heard back from him. Brad's housekeeper called her repeatedly, she said, but she dodged the calls, saying, "I’m not picking up this bitch’s phone call ... I didn't want to speak to her."
When his housekeeper finally got through to her on Dec. 12, 2017, to deliver the news that Brad had died from a heart attack, Drago said she refused to believe it at first.
"At the time, I didn’t want to deal with another one of Brad’s stupid dramas," she said. "He ends up in the hospital every year."
Brad's mother asked Drago to come to the hospital to see Brad and deliver his wallet.
"When I saw him dead, I was shocked. I didn’t believe he was gone," Drago said.
"This man — the bane of my existence — just up and died."
"Then I felt relieved," she added. "I knew I wouldn’t have to be his entertainment anymore and I could have freedom back with my life and body."
"I had never told anyone publicly about my relationship with Brad. I never said goodbye, and I was ready to get closure on his anniversary," Drago said.
"I thought my following would enjoy a glimmer into my crazy past, get a chuckle and maybe even learn something," she added. "I also thought Brad would love to be featured on my social media as he was always trying to be seen with me in public."
To critics bashing her for speaking any ill about him, Drago said she doesn't feel bad at all. "I want people to know that he propositioned me to be his sugar baby," she said. "He has also admitted to always paying to have a girlfriend because he was too lazy to get one through the traditional way of dating."
On the first two nights after Brad's death, Drago said she and her boyfriend heard strange, loud noises in their bedroom.
Brad "knows I’m so afraid of ghosts," she said, so she believes he was creating those noises to troll her.
On one such night, she said, she kept hearing the sound of "a big stack of quarters" and "hundreds of dollars in change" being "thrown onto the night stand" repeatedly. She also heard "five loud knocks" at the door, which kept her up all night.
A couple of months later, she randomly received $2 bills as she was running errands — she and Brad used to tip people in $2 bills, she explained, adding that it was their "thing."
"It's got to be him...a little nod," she said.
Melina Mason's name was misstated in an earlier version of this post.

Another porn star who worked in the US adult entertainment industry has been found dead.
Olivia Lua, 23, died in a rehab facility in West Hollywood on Friday morning.
The actress, who used the screen name Olivia Voltaire, is believed to have died from mixing prescription drugs and alcohol .
It is not known how she got the substances into the facility where she was being treated for addiction.
Her agency, LA Direct Models, confirmed her death to XBiz , the porn industry's news outlet, on Friday.
Olivia's death is the fifth in just six months across the US and Canada. Four other women have died from suicide, accidental overdose and UTIs.
Olivia Lua, whose screen name was Olivia Voltaire, died in West Hollywood on Friday aged 23
In his statement, Derek Hay of L.A. Direct Models said Lua had been battling addiction for some time and was seeking help.
He said it was a 'coincidence' that the two most recent deaths were of women who belonged to L.A. Direct Models.
'Much comment has recently been made on the number of adult stars having passed in the last year and with great sadness we must inform that the list has grown longer.
'Olivia joined LA Direct Models in April 2017, though had not been available for work since early October of last year, as she had been facing some personal challenges that had seen her in residential rehab for a period of nearly three months and from which she had been out for about a month, hoping to make a return to work in the early part of this year.
'We learned today that she had returned to a different facility in West Hollywood after a relapse, approximately a week ago, at which she was found deceased this morning.
Lua had been seeking help for substance abuse problems. Before she died, she tweeted a final selfie (left) and said: 'No one alive can be an angel forever'
Olivia's agency said they were shocked by her death. She had not worked for some time due to her addiction problems
'Family and close friends [said] they had deep concern at the volume of prescription drugs prescribed to Olivia and the danger this posed [to] her. If this was mixed with recreational drugs or alcohol, it is believed this to be the cause of her passing,' he said.
Olivia Nova, who died in Las Vegas earlier this month aged 20 from sepsis that is believed to have been caused by a UTI, also worked for LA Direct Models.
Hay said it was merely a 'coincidence' that the two most recent deaths were of women who belonged to his agency.
'We at Direct Models obviously can barely believe we are issuing a notice such as this, not once but twice, in such a short space of time.
'The coincidence that both of these models chosen stage names is Olivia is solely that and they otherwise have no connection. We actually do not think they had ever met.'
On November 9, Shyla Stylez, 35, (left) died in her sleep at her mother's home in Calgary. August Ames, 23, (right) hanged herself on December 5
Days before her death, Lua shared cryptic social media posts including one which read 'no one alive can be an angel forever'.
It is not clear if any of the five models who have died recently knew one another.
So far, there has been no proof of a link between any of their deaths beyond the fact that they were all porn stars.
The first death was that of 35-year-old Shyla Stylez. Stylez died in her sleep at her mother's home in Calgary on November 9. So far, no reason has been given for her death.
Stylez left the porn industry in 2016 after 10 years.
In December, actress August Ames, 23, hanged herself in California, where she lived with her husband.
What prompted her suicide remains unclear but in the days beforehand, she found herself in the center of a firestorm on Twitter after publicly saying that she had refused to work with a man she knew did both straight and gay scenes.
Yurizan Beltran, 31, (left) died from an overdose in December and Olivia Nova, 20, died from sepsis (right) on January 9
Ames' argument was that because the male actor worked with both men and women, he was more likely to have contracted STIs and she believed it put her at risk.
Days after Ames' death, 31-year-old Yurizan Beltran died of an apparent drug overdose at home in California. It is not known if the overdose was accidental or intentional.
On January 9, 20-year-old Olivia Nova died in her bed in Las Vegas.
The young actress had been tweeting about how she was alone for the holidays and wanted to call a fan to lift her mood.
At first, it was suspected that drugs or alcohol may have played a part in her death.
However police reports which have emerged recently suggest the woman was suffering from sepsis.
She had prescription medication given for a urinary tract infection at the home when she died, according to the report.
