“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.”
