The Disney star says he has tried to work out things “amicably” with his ex-wife but says, “She will have outbursts of hostility directed at me, and often change in her behavior and attitude comes without warning.”

He has also alleged she may have a mental health disorder and says she has been taking medication.

Jim is also very worried about his future with Disney, claiming Stephanie has threatened to ruin his longstanding career. He claims she threatened, “I will go and I will ruin your reputation … I am going to tell people Winnie the Pooh is a woman beating, drug addicted freak!”

Let her go and prove her case in court. Until then, I'm not buying it.

Hate to hear Cummings's name attached to the accusations. By far, my favorite voice-acting talent for all the roles he's brought to life.

I say let the facts play out in court. It would be a shame for him to get blackballed on the basis of accusation alone.

Jester 05-03-2019 03:28 PM

I'm right there with you. I'd love to see vet bills and police reports, things that prove one way or another what happened. Does seem like a way to sully the reputation of someone known primarily for children's movies. But the again his responses left me a little conflicted. They don't seem that helpful.

You forgot his Fred Wolf TMNT roles.

The Cummings allegation reminded me of this little scene..

But in all seriousness, I like Jim and, I hope that none of the allegations are even true.

we've seen women do false accusations before. it's nothing new. it's just not reported on properly in this day and age where women think they can do anything with 0 consequences.

Autbot_Benz 05-03-2019 05:31 PM

Cummings would never do something like his ex wife is accusing.

Also the same Jim Cummings calls sick children who are at the hospital and talks to them as Pooh Bear.

Hope you are feeling alright today, bud.

Yikes. This is not a good look.

Jim Cummings voiced in just about every major cartoon in the 80's and 90's and a lot in the 2000's as well. Look through his idmb page, he voiced almost everybody. Not to mention in our own TMNT cartoon, he voiced 80's Shredder in a few episodes and 80's Leatherhead.

Well in this day and age all a woman has to do is accuse you of something without proof and that is it. I hope he doesn't loose his carrier as a voice actor because of this.

I’ve met some of Mr. Cummings’ co-workers and good friends who are also in the voice acting industry. They say that he is one of the kindest and most professional people in the industry. Even the ones who are liberal and don’t agree his Catholic and Conservative views have nothing but respect for him. His ex-wife must not be mentally well.

I have heard this too from numerous Voice Actors from Rob Paulsen to Tara Strong.

Regardless of this, I prefer to think well of Jim Cummings and be happy for his contributions to my childhood and millions of others. I hope these accusations turn out not to be true or at least never proven true.

Those were my words too. :o

This is first voice that I could recognize.

If something comes out about Rob Paulsen I don't know what I'll do.
