The Mistress Speaks

[icyfroth]

This was on the WSFM Breakfast Show reaction line this morning. Toni McHugh was dolled up for a photo shoot - and gave a lengthy interview in which she denied having any influence over Baden-Clay's decision to kill his wife Alison. So, are you interested in her story, or should she just shut up? I agree with Amanda I'm disappointed in Womens Weekly for running that story I think Allison shoud rest in peace now and her family get some closure and move on.

Wouldn't children be embarrassed to have their mothers love trysts (back of car etc) detailed in public?

That alone is good enough reason for TM to get out of the limelight now...nothing she has done (in the 4 years prior to Allison's death) would make anyone proud of her.

Probably but we can't know the family dynamics........... I think they have a different surname though...............and she has not paraded them before the media.

Kids are off limits to the media, especially those whose parents are part of a court case. TMs children would be off limit for questions in any interviews she gives.

Yes , they do have a different surname. People that knew them before the GBC was arrested would know who their mother was. Privately it wouldn't be nice to see your Mum splashed in the newspapers as a mistress to a murderer, including all the seedy details.

The BC children were not off limits...................... I have lost count of the number of times I saw them televised etc. (and named!) It was appalling, IMO

Not recently though. I can't remember any of their names. Their faces are blocked out in any photos in the media now. The media have never lurked outside their schools, home etc trying to get photos of them.

I'm wondering how she knows having an extra-marital affair didn't influence him in wanting to be rid of his wife.

Perhaps they never discussed Gerard killing his wife?

Whatever.

Where I'm from, in polite company, we always say: "no-one ever really knows what goes on between two people" .

No-one knows the relationship any of these people really had with each-other.

If you were the mistress with your sordid story spread all over MSM how many of you would be doing a 60ty minutes story for payment and flaunting yourself in a photo shoot and doing a story in AWW?

And how many would be hanging your head in shame?

[cherry*135]

I disagree. We do know the relationship GBC & TM had with each other... where they spent their 'stolen hours' together, what they did in that time etc.. the false email account GBC emailed her on, the content of emails he sent her, what promises he made to her..

GBC kicking TM out of the office when Allison found out about them.. him telling the staff his wife will be working there but he STILL LOVES TM....

I would be so mortified to think I had been sucked into a relationship with such a monster, I would hang my head in big shame and never want to be seen in public again!

p.s. I would never have an affair with a married man or any man as a married woman.

I wouldn't be the mistress............... unless he kept it hidden and was a clever cheat. So I can't really say. 🙂
