VIDEO : Madonna Says Sean Penn Didn't Assault Her

Madonna insists Sean Penn never physically hurt her while they were married. Following Empire creator Lee Daniels' implications in an interview earlier this year that Sean hit women, the actor filed a $10m lawsuit against him. Now Sean's singer ex-wife has come forward to insist any allegations of assault are entirely false. The legal battle began after Lee used his interview in The Hollywood Reporter to compare Sean to Terrence Howard, who has previously been accused of numerous incidents of assaulting women.
