This is after Tequila faced celebrity blogger Perez Hilton on Twitter in a war of words that had the two hurling insults at each other.

Johnson's family had removed Casey's adopted daughter Ava from her, and cut off the heiress who was the friend of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie.  Casey was reportedly left to live in a home with no utilities, a green, algae filled pool and squalor.

Johnson was a diabetic with a history of drugs and alcohol abuse.  Her father is New York Jets' owner Woody Johnson, who reportedly lost his brother Keith to a drug overdose in 1975, reported the New York Daily News.

The Daily News reported that Casey's family "were shocked" when she announced her engagement to Tila in an online video.

According to her Twitter announcements, Tequila plans on creating a celebrity blog to compete in the online crush for insider entertainment news.
