I think this is a great illustration that life is complicated. They obviously still love each other enough to stay together. There is so much more to a relationship than sex. If he's getting his needs met and they can make it work, I won't judge. It's disappointing she won't get help but sometimes people need to hit rock bottom before they're ready to accept help.

Yeah, just because your personal life gets complicated at some point, it doesn't make you a monster. Some of the kindest, most open-hearted people I know are also the biggest, messiest drama-royalty you will ever see. Hell, the two may even go together since they both involve processing big feelings.

Rupert Murdoch

It gets much worse:

Ivanka Trump was reportedly in attendance at Murdoch’s party. A source told People that she was “cheering [Jackman] on” as he performed.”

While promoting his 2018 film “The Front Runner,” Jackman told Variety that his longtime friendship with Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, was not a reflection of his political values.

X-Men

Maybe, LOL? I have heard gossip about his divorce, and the culty stuff is new to me, but you're the second person to mention it.

Exactly! More proof I didn't read the article or watch the movie.

I have business being here. I just saw the word Cocaine and thought it was a party.

Basically he is a member of this weird ass quasi intellectual society that seems to view women as second class, and servants to men. Underage abuse allegations and it goes by different names in different places throughout the world.

They are called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_of_Philosophy_and_Economic_Science

This goes way back. Even producers/execs were trying to diddle Shirley Temple during her heyday.

But it's not just Hollywood/showbiz. It's anyone is positions of power.

I can't rewatch Enchanted because there is a literal reference to the Epstein sex crime-pipeline at the end of the movie and it is so gross.

I love that movie and Amy Adams is fantastic, but I can never unsee that degenerate shit ever again.

It's also not on accident because the executive producer on Enchanted was one of Epsteins' good friends, Barry Josephson, who is in the Epstein files, where he corresponds with him about finding him new hot girls to fuck.

The Barrymore and Drew ancestry she has is particularly bonkers. She comes from an unbroken (though slightly zig-zaggy on a family tree) line of actors going back literally 200 years, many of them with notoriously unhappy personal stories. Celebrity gossip is that her daughter(s) may eventually act, which would bump it from 6 to 7 generations.

Plenty of horrible parents outside of showbiz,

The famous folks get more attention.

I knew she had a troubled history, but that's just sad. My older sister said she once drank alcohol she found around that age, but that was a mistake. Who would knowingly give a 5yo alcohol?

I didn't think of it like that, but it's a wild image.
