I also think Lorraine might have said something in advance to Alice about not being allowed to badmouth Ioan (fear of possible legal repercussions) so it wasn't so much Alice choosing to behave well as it was Alice knowing she simply couldn't say terrible things about him and Bianca.
Yes, AE said "I don't want to bash him" like she hasn't been doing that as a full time job on SM. She was told she couldn't do that in the interview, as they don't want to have to edit out loads for fear of a court case for slandering him.
Still there was some honesty, she admits she took him for granted as a "smug married". We know she did, with all the digs at him on SM, followed by a 'tee hee'. "I thought it was never going to happen to me" she said. Why? Because he was so under her thumb? Or she was just too awesome to leave?
"I thought that I might do myself harm." Sounds like she might have used that one to keep him in the house from August - December 2020. Very manipulative and controlling.
She admits she bored her friends complaining about him, hence why she turned to SM to bore / amuse strangers instead.
"He will only talk to me through lawyers". Not true - she just doesn't want to use the wizard and then justifies sticking her mug into the phone on his daughters' "sometimes, rarely" face-time, as if that's ok. And she doesn't know why? Eh, maybe he doesn't want to talk to you??
"He is probably going through hell as well." Well, yes, not helped by AE's constant smears on him, his family and BW. And nice use of the old-fashioned word, 'mistress' lol. And the picture he released DIDN'T say "Finally someone who can make me happy" and the crew DIDN'T say "So glad you guys are finally out" "You're allowed to be happy and you're not being held back anymore." Anyone can check this didn't happen - where's the receipts?
"This is my husband." Present tense used
After 11 months of separation??
"I think I was owed more than Instagram after 20 years of marriage and 2 children." If it was amicable, then yes, but she did everything to make it as painful for him as possible. So he owes her nothing - just the prenup. End of.
"It was a little bit cowardly." No, a wise move given her inflammatory nature.
"I'm pretty sure this has been going on for quite a while." She is not sure of anything, but that doesn't stop her.
"We have a very messy and long divorce ahead of us." And who's fault would that be? Cha-ching for the lawyers.
"I don't know if I am going to be able to stay here in the house." No you won't and you know it.
"It's gotten very nasty for some reason and I don't know why." LOL. Check your SM Alice.
On Celebitchy someone wrote "He could have painted the house with ‘I’m leaving you’ slogans, had it embroidered on the sheets, and spray-painted it across the bathroom walls in bright blue shaving cream, and she still would pretend she didn’t see it. An obstinately stupid adult."
