Ricky Martin denied restraining order allegations on social media after a judge issued the order against the singer in Puerto Rico on Friday.
Martin, 50, took to Twitter on Sunday evening to dispel the "false allegations" of the domestic violence restraining order, which was filed days after the "Livin' La Vida Loca" singer was hit with a lawsuit seeking over $3 million by his former manager. "The protection order entered against me is based on completely false allegations, so I will respond through the judicial process with the facts and the dignity that characterize me," he wrote on social media.
