Taylor Swift’s mom was called to testify during day three of Taylor’s legal battle against ex-radio DJ David Mueller, who is accused of groping her behind during a meet-and-greet in 2013.

The DJ countersued, saying the allegations cost him $150,000 and is seeking $3 million in damages. Taylor, however, is only seeking $1 in damages.

Taylor’s mom Andrea revealed that she was upset “to the extent that I felt like I wanted to vomit and cry at the same time… Emotions move on over time. I was far, far more upset and trying to be attentive to my daughter that I was consumed with anger… I heard it from my daughter’s mouth. He sexually assaulted her. Right there, that guy.”

She continued: “One of the things that stuck with me was that [Taylor] couldn’t believe that, she, after the incident, after he grabbed her, that she thanked them for being there. She said thank you. It was just destroying her after she said that to someone that did that to her. It made me, as a parent, think, ‘Why did I tell her to be so polite in that moment?'”
