Transcript

Here’s the thing, I definitely recognize that the decisions that were being made by myself and by the group weren’t great. However, I will forever stand by that I didn’t deserve to be cheated on. I didn’t deserve to have a friend and my husband going behind my back. I also didn’t deserve to be made the issue in the situation.

Anyways, I’m just grateful and really proud of where I am in this spot now. Alright, that’s a wrap for today.
