It’s mad how Katherine Ryan is being attacked for not even mentioning his name - it’s the same shit happening all over again and I can’t believe the press wanted to pat themselves on the back regarding the Jonas-Turner divorce. You all haven’t learned shit yet!!

There's a certain type of women people like them will support. God forbid a woman looks like they might defend themselves against a man.
