Be glad you're rid of him. He's fortunately not your boyfriend anymore.

I don't envy her. He's clearly just jumped to another person he thinks he can manipulate and control to get his own needs met instead of acknowledging that his behaviour towards you was wrong and he needs to sort himself out. It's natural to feel hurt and upset, I'm sure there were good parts and nice memories to your relationship with him as well as all the horrible times so it's natural that you'd feel betrayed. But you're right, you are better off and safer without him and there's much better things in store for you . Just be gentle with yourself, let yourself grieve what you had hoped the relationship could be and focus on yourself and your own wants needs and hopes for moving forward.

People with serious problems often “recycle” old partners they can control and manipulate. It’s hard OP, but one day you will celebrate this ending rather than mourn it. You are now free to find someone worthy of your love.
