90 Day Fiance star Larissa Christina Dos Santos Lima has denied her now-estranged husband Colt Johnson's claim that she downed half a bottle of pills and threatened to kill herself when they got into a bloody brawl earlier this month.

When Larissa was arrested in the early morning hours on January 11 following a domestic dispute with Colt in their Las Vegas home, Colt told authorities an enraged Larissa swallowed half a bottle of antidepressants and then locked herself in the bathroom, TMZ reported last week.

However, Larissa has refuted Colt's statement that she attempted to take her own life before her arrest that day. 

"Dear followers, friends and family, I would like to clarify that the rumors about drug abuse or suicide attempts are not true," Larissa, 32, wrote Monday on Instagram.

"I love for my life so much that I would never try to do something like this. These allegations are completely false and I have all my medical records to prove it."

The TLC reality star continued, "I am going through a difficult moment in my life and at this moment I would like to ask people to respect and avoid talking about things that are not real. I will make a video to talk about everything on my right time."

According to Larissa, she had locked herself in the bathroom to defuse her argument with Colt and then she took a shower.

Larissa also alleged to police at the time Colt was taunting her by playing with the lights and touching her inappropriately during her shower, TMZ reported.

Colt filed for divorce from Larissa on January 11, just hours after their explosive fight which started when Larissa accused Colt of purchasing pornographic videos. She claimed to have found email receipts for such content.

Tension reportedly escalated into violence and neither Colt or Larissa walked away from the brawl unscathed. Larissa apparently had a large gash on her cheek as well as scratches on her torso, while Colt had a cut on the inside of his lip.

"Colt called the cops on me. I am going to be deported. I just scratched him because he was hurting me. As you see, I am really hurt," Larissa said in an Instagram Story that was subsequently deleted. "But he called the police first."

Larissa has since been charged with misdemeanor domestic violence for the incident. She was previously arrested for domestic battery twice before in 2018, but both cases were eventually dropped.

Prior to this blowout fight, Larissa had accused Colt of cheating on her and flirting with multiple women on social media.

Colt eventually owned up to his mistakes and claimed he was going to try to be a better man and fight for his marriage, but his efforts clearly didn't last long.
