She was raised by her father until she was ten years old and after the failure of her parent’s marriage, she moved to her mother in a small town in Alaska.
Lyssa Chapman had her daughter Abbie Mae Chapman when she was fifteen years old, and to everyone’s surprise, she refused to report her offender but thanked him for giving her a daughter.

She took part in her father’s television show “Dog the Bounty Hunter”, an American reality TV series that was broadcast by A&E at the time. The series was discontinued in 2012 after eight seasons and 246 episodes.

Unfortunately, there were reports that she was physically and mentally abused during her marriage and that she sometimes ran out of the house in the middle of the night to her father’s house because she was afraid of Galanti.
In 2011, however, Lyssa got tired of the abuse and decided to file for divorce and both went separate ways.

In 2013 she wrote a book entitled “Walking on Eggshells”, her autobiography: The Story of Lyssa Chapman. In this book, she explained and revealed things that happened in her life.
