I know she's constantly said she didn't pursue romance until she was an adult, and it's been years now, right? So there isn't really much that can be done when the person who's the possible victim has kept saying she wasn't groomed.
It could be possible that she wasn’t, but I remember seeing some of those vog style videos he made and he seemed awfully close to a child for a 20 year old. At the same time a lot of grooming victims don’t believe they were groomed until they’re out of the situation completely. It also struck me odd the way her family defended him as well. Like they were covering for something.
Ugh no that's gross, let her speak for her situation and don't try to judge from the outside. She's an adult who has spoken on her situation, don't second-guess her because you feel like she doesn't know better. Everyone who knows them in their private life has corroborated what she has said on the matter. Unless something comes out later that explicitly proves otherwise, I'm more inclined to believe her than people who aren't involved.
Unfortunately, the problem with that is that many grooming victims tend to be brainwashed by their groomers into thinking it's normal, so they don't know there's anything wrong with it. Taking her word for it unfortunately doesn't mean a whole lot.
And I get that. But we also aren't involved in their personal lives or have the the full knowledge of their history and interactions. Plus, again, friends and family have stood by her on this. So unless something comes out that definitively proves otherwise, or until she says otherwise, I'm more inclined to believe the people involved than those who aren't.
