I don't know how I feel like Katie. Knowing her history of childhood sexual abuse, addiction issues and now her mum is dying makes me relate to her, I can understand her behaviour. It doesn't justify what she has done or how she has treated people but it's a reason. I personally think she a very unwell lady who needs a lot of time spent in healing, until she is truly well no one can judge her. As for her children, they seem to have sensible father's and a great support network so hopefully they are receiving help and support which shouldn't impact them too much in the long run. This all being said Katie needs to learn and it's going to take her to hit rock bottom before anything changes, what we have seen so far is only the tip of the iceberg. She'll get worse!
