Angus Cloud’s Ex-Manager Details Actor’s Alleged Substance Abuse Struggles

Angus Cloud’s former talent manager, Diomi Cordero, detailed the tumultuous end of his professional relationship with the actor during a lengthy rant on Twitter, Friday. In the posts, Cordero revealed that he met the Euphoria star while working the “graveyard shift” as a “mental health technician” at a rehab clinic.

While developing their relationship, Cordeo says he helped Cloud “regain control of his personal and professional life.” However, there were apparently many friends in Cloud’s life who were a bad influence on his sobriety. “Their reckless behavior and lack of regard for Angus’ recovery served as a significant obstacle to his progress ultimately contributing to his relapse,” he wrote.

After Cloud began abusing substances again, Cordeo says that Euphoria creator Sam Levinson pleaded with the actor to “fight for his life.” Eventually, Cordero says that Cloud’s behavior towards him “became extremely abusive,” adding that he “had gone to the extent of degrading me publicly in front of his friends & even my colleagues.” Cordero says that he made the decision to resign after Cloud was invited to attend a Versace fashion show in Europe. Just days before the trip, Cloud contacted Cordero to inform him that he’d prefer if only his friends joined him abroad.

“As a result of my resignation, for over a year, I have been pursuing the collection of my outstanding management commissions from Angus, totaling over $60,000.00,” he concluded. “Despite repeated attempts to resolve this matter amicably, I have yet to receive any of the payments owed to me. In sharing my story, I hope to not only find solace & healing but to also inspire others who may be struggling to find their voice in an industry where most are silenced. I wanted to be a testament to the power of speaking up and owning one’s truth, even in the face of adversity.”
