We should thank Wallis for enabling us to dodge the bullet that was Edward VIII
Edward thought abdication meant getting rid of all the boring parts of being King and keeping all the social perks. They both thought their exile would be temporary. Good on the royal family at keeping that pair at a distance.
Like another certain another couple we know??
@@saramona8914 Meghan never had any intentions of being a part of the royal family. She is all about herself. It’s sickening what happened. And the Queen saw it coming.
King Charles has lierally done the same thing. Good on the queen ditching her own uncle?? Hate to see what she woulda done to a stranger. Glad I’m not in your family.
Charles and Camilla are identical. If you turn your back on family, I’d hate to see what you’d do to a stranger. Edward wasn’t suited to be a King, he just happened to fall in the line of sucession, like many Kings, unqualified, but adored by the serfs who work to give him luxury.
😂
The Queen has my undying respect for the classy way she treated Wallis. The Queen treated Wallis with respect and friendship. Even though Elizabeth is gone, she was extremely wonderful, discreet and truly wonderful. I’m sorry that I never had the opportunity to meet her, because she must have been truly wonderful.
Perhaps a thesaurus could assist in future writings? Using wonderful 4 different times to describe Elizabeth royal is a wee bit redundant, you mention not having met the Queen with much regret, Do tell, what position in society do you hold that one should have met the Queen? but alas was a victim of unfortunate circumstance and therefore did not?
When I was young I tried to like and believe that Edward & Wallis where just misunderstood...."poor Eddie & Wally". Lol
What a pair!
History repeating itself now
Yeah have Charles and his plaything
@rosemadore446 Yes, as in King Henry VIII who broke away from the Church just to divorce his wife to marry Anne Boleyn whom he later beheaded. Loads of similarities there. 😅😃
Maybe we shouldn't put restrictions or judgements on who other people marry.
Also I think Meghan has WAAAY more in common with Diana than Wallis. Altho I feel for all 3 of them. The way England treats any woman who marries in but doesn't fit the 'perfect virginal English rose' trope is disgusting.
@@lorianabanana6066 I wasn't talking about meghan I was talking that thing we have a QUEEN
Now Edward you see the price of poosy
Prince George, the Duke of Kent was killed in an plane crash in August 1942, "along with his wife" Really? The same wife (Princess Marina) who died in Kensington Palace in 1968? 🤦
He actually went by the name David until he became King Edward.
Bad as it was when Prince George, Duke of Kent, was killed in the Scottish highlands, his wife, Princess Marina of Greec and Denmark, was at their Buckinghamshire home at the time. Prince Marina was to live a further 26 years after the accident that took the Duke of Kent.
I believe Edward 8 was a traitor. Were he anyone else he would have been executed for treason.
The whole family is like that! They spend their lives lobbying the government to protect their personal wealth!
Their charity work is a cover , so they don't end up like King Charles lst!
Well ! If Edward who loved his party style life had not abdicated we in Britain 🇬🇧 would never of had Queen Elizabeth 2 xx and let’s face it as future history has shown an American especially an actress does not match royalty ! Wallis became trapped and both her & Edward followed Hitler because they were promised the throne back when Germany invaded Britain 🇬🇧 never happened thank heaven xx
We WOULD have had Queen Elizabeth but not as soon as we did! It might have been 20 years later .
Excuse me? An American actress who is half Black is not good enough to marry into the British Royal Family? And I suppose the Maori who married one of Queen Elizabeth's cousins wasn't good enough either? I get the impression that you think that the British Royal Family should stay lily white, for some nutty reason. So Harry married an American actress. Big bloody deal! He doesn't need your (or anyone else's) permission to marry. He married the woman he wanted to marry, whether you or anyone else on the planet liked it or not. Get over it.
I believe England dodged a bullet by Edward VIII Abdication.
Agree❤
This was very good... I did quite a bit of research on Wallis when I was working on my thesis... She was indeed something to behold, but often not understood.
When you think of the women Edward passed over the phrase 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' comes to mind .
Wallis expected to be set aside by Edward, as all his married mistresses were. But Edward fell for her in a big way, not at all what she wanted. It’s called getting more than you bargained for. It serves her right. Imagine being with Edward for the rest of his life, ugh !
Or Harry 🤮
@@michelejashinsky8409Please leave Harry out of this.
Both narcissistic. Perfect together
🇬🇧 My Great Aunt was cook to Wallis Simpson when she stayed at the Beach House , Felixstowe awaiting her divorce. My birth Mother's second husband, Gordon Rogers, ( of the Rogers Brothers , Felixstowe , ) bought Harvest House, Cobold Road Felixstowe . This is where Wallis and Edward 8th spent some time. Harvest House was a hotel at the time.
Wow, that's an interesting fun fact! Did your Great-Aunt ever talk about what it was like to work for Wallis?
That's an awesome fun fact! Did your Great-Aunt ever talk about what it was like to work for Wallis?
I believed for many years that Wallis was unfairly blamed for Edward's abdication, but the more I learn about her life and her interactions with other people, the less I think she was a victim of her circumstances. Outside of what seems to be her own words (and we have recent proof of how some types of people will lie through their teeth and discredit everyone around them to achieve their goals - or to blame someoe for the goals not being achieved) there is not much to show that she was a good person or that she cared about other people.
I become increasingly convinced that neither she nor Edward expected that he actually would have to go through with the abdication of the throne. I think they both expected that Edward was so much loved by the people of the UK that there would be public pressure to let him marry Wallis and make her his queen. Presumably they were quite surprised when the abdication was supported rather than stopped and they found themselves without a throne and a country and stripped of royal privileges, which Edward probably thought were his birthright.
I do not think Wallis ever forgave Edward for the step down, which living in exile and losing their standing in high society, was. So many reports reveal that she was horrible to him, and his life-long obsession of getting her an HRH-title seems a desperate attempt to please a furious and scorn wife.
Yes Wallis treated ‘her David’ terribly but Wallis knew how to please a man. David liked her humiliating him. The married mistress he had before Wallis had letters from him where he says he’s been a bad naughty boy, and needed to be thoroughly spanked. To each their own but how stupid of the Prince to write such revealing letters. I have read that his father, the King, was a strict disciplinarian who frequently used the rod on his sons.
The King knew his son’s weaknesses, knew that the heir apparent suffered bouts of morose, knew his son lacked the education needed to be King simply because he would not apply himself to his tutors frustrations. So George V had severe reservations about Prince Edward, saying "After I am dead, the boy will ruin himself in twelve months" and "I pray God that my eldest son will never marry and that nothing will come between Bertie and Lilibet and the throne.”❤
I disagree. I don't think she ever expected or wanted to be queen.
I think she was a terrible person, and she was no victim, and Edward was a weak man and was controlled by Wallace , she was mean to him
They where a hoot in Bermuda...miss both of em..
The traitor king a new release was a good .Really worth a read but I've forgot the authors name . Cheers Denise reads it on her channel.
Princess Marina did not die in the plane crash with Prince George Duke of Kent
I've always wondered who would Edward have even married if he couldn't have Wallis? Would he ever even marry at all? History is so fascinating when you think about how small changes could effect so much
😂
😂
Very good point.
I don't think Wallis wanted to marry him as she continued to write love letters to her previous husband!
I love the way she panics when she realizes it’s not going to go down as she had thought it might be. She just wanted her bases covered, but when you’re playing with human emotions you can’t count on much. They looked to have an ineffectual, vapid life post abdication. He especially seemed surprised by the bargain he had made.
You act as though the Royals are saints. They carry out the royal duties because I have to and order to maintain power I continue to leech off the British citizens
I think she was happy just to have a fling with Edward but he fell in love with her and became obsessed she was trapped and couldn’t get away apparently he used to threaten suicide if she left him . I don’t think her life with him was easy I felt sorry for her .
Thank you! I quite agree.
I don’t think she was perfect, but I do think she gets quite a bad wrap.
Sounds like a certain ginger and HW. Amazing how much alike they are.
Wallis Simpson and the Duke of Windsor, where very pally with Hitler and his crew and used to visit him in his mountain refuge in WW2 attended German Rally'ss in the complany of him and his Destapo crew. Hitlet allegedly had told Edward that when he won the War he would put Edward back in Great Britain as ruler. @@ginao6810

I wanted to say I saw a dress Wallis wore, which was the epitome of the dress MM wore for her Oprah moment of shame.
I began to see evil in all of it at at that point. How can you not notice the cosplay of MM???
It’s like these individuals want to change the world to their evil power, not for any good of any kind.
Be aware.
😂
The Duke of Kent did die in an airplane crash- but his wife died in 1968; they did not die at the same time. Might want to double check your information.
Sometimes if you get what you want it does not turn out to be happy.
Edward would have been an awful king but at least he found someone that saved the British people from his disastrous reign. Even id she was as self absorbed and out of touch as he was
Who the fack needs a bloody king or queen to rule them??
@@Jooniebug- Are you British? If you are then you’ll be able to answer your own question. If not, then look into British history & it’s culture. 😊

A little rough wouldn't you say?
Kindness is underrated. 🙏
@molly5292 - No, I wouldn't say it's rough at all. Infact, given the the intense level of toxicity which online discourse is rife with, I'd say my comment was benign.
I'm interested as to why you think it's "rough"
If he had become king we might all be speaking German.
I’m not sure about Edward, but I really enjoyed this podcast. The orator was. One of the best I’ve ever heard. Thank you.
But not the most accurate unfortunately. There are better sites and documentaries. Don’t be fooled by the authoritative narration.
That comment about the Duke of Kent is totally incorrect, he was on a military plane and his wife Princess Marina of Kent was at home with her children. by the way her three children are still alive and the eldest son Prince Edward - Duke of Kent. alsways stood on the balcony with our late Queen. His daughter is still alive Princess Alexandra. and Prince Michael of Kent,.
I loved listening to your story.
Everyone in brittan should be glad Wallis took this spoiled stupid entitled man out of the picture! He was not fit for office at all! I feel history does not speak enough to this fact. Had they put this man to serve in war like his brother, as uneducated as he was he had wanted to do this the difference would have been major to his personality. But know they wouldn’t let him for fear the air could be hurt there were other brothers those that served and knew the price of death . My goodness still talking about a mommy wanting man and yes his mother was not there but heck sometimes it builds characters.
what are you on about?
The Germans didn't 'breach' the Maginot Line, they famously went around it.
She wasn’t entirely ugly she had something chic about her
She did have beautiful blue eyes!
She was VERY chic. Wallis knew she wasn't beautiful so she developed her personality, style, general knowledge and hostess skills to the max to fit into the high society she wanted to fit into. And it worked, as we know a little too well.
Rather like a beautifully wrapped gift box containing nothing.
@@timhazeltine3256absolutely!
When you think of the women Edward passed over the phrase 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' comes to mind .
Women who keep their hearts close to their chest, know how to control men, and keep them.
Honestly. The “Buttercup Kennedy” thing is known to have been set up by her husband so Wallis could divorce him instead of being divorced by him, and embarrassing Edward. No one was “followed” and “Buttercup” was played by Mary.
😂
what are you on about?
Ernest being caught in an affair so that Wallace could divorce him for Edward. There are letters that were found showing it was a setup and Ernest was involved in it. @@glen7318
Thank you Stanley Baldwin, you saved England, helped win a war in doing so and gave England it's finests monarch in modern history, Queen Elizabeth II
And Queen Mary, who possessed the moral rigor to assist in jettisoning her clearly unsuitable son from the Throne.
Baldwin was a leading proponent of appeasement, which emboldened Germany and did nothing to strengthen Britain militarily. He certainly did nothing to save Britain. Perhaps he was too busy plotting to overthrow King Edward.
😂
😂
@@timhazeltine3256 Re Queen Mary of England, ya gotta love the Sax Coberg Goethe's. Boring as all hell but stalwart.

They ended up being basically known for landing at the top of the best dressed lists. And for launching a million mini series. ;)
They helped AIDS charities.
And a ton of documentaries.
And a ton of documentaries.
We dodged a bullet there certainly.
Agree ❤
What a sad biography/documentary. As I see it, both were affected by events during their childhood that influenced their life decisions. So sad 😞
😂
😂
Yes, they certainly deserved one another.
@@donnawolman150I'm getting the impression that you're a troll.
It didn’t have to be. Many bravely overcame rough childhoods and went through n to make lives that blessed others and themselves.
Edward VIII, like his grandfather, was created by the treatment of their parents. It’s simple psychology 101. These two were so put upon by their parents it’s a wonder they didn’t snap mentally. One could say actually that Edward VIIi did. They way he needed this woman to belittle him... And how he worshipped her... He wasn’t fully aware of his faculties.
Both were damage people.He never had love of parents,so he put all that love on her.he could never have put his kingdom first.😯🤔🤫
People should live their lives the way they want to. Nobody wants to be burdened with a country or put the country first instead of their own lives. I wonder what you would do if you were in that position. Also he was a nazi! Thank goodness he wasn't king
For nothing because she never loved him.
He also didn’t accept the importance of duty, integrity and responsibility. His own base needs were more important to him, a hedonistic person.
They seemed to deserve each other.
All Wallis's husband's name started with E's, Earl, Ernest and Edward. Even though they called Earl Wen.
David was his name, used by his family and Wallis.
@@hazelpearson7807 I know they called him David.
I suppose it saved her getting her monogrammed linens redone 😉
The eternal soap opera (that is, life) churns on. I love the haggling behind the scenes in the upper echelons of British society and politics. The disparate personalities. As long as you can snag a black tie invite to dinner with Chips Channon, you were in the groove. ;).
As you were on your dying bed she went out to have fun with friends . You should have stayed in England you Majesty
HUH?
dont talk nonsense.
$225 in 1922 would equal $3,990 in 2024. I could certainly manage on $4k per month. With that income and getting a job (something that Wallis NEVER did) she could have lived reasonable well on an income, that if she worked would have been $60k (2024 dollars) a year with no rent; because, they were living with relatives. She WASN'T suffering!
You forgot to mention they had to wait cir Ernest to get a DIVORCE. Apparently, she wasn't interested in single men.
what are you on about?
I take umbrage to the American harlots bit. As if we arranged by act of state to press this particular harlot on The British.
Indeed, we played our own part in warning them and did what we could to prevent the coupling of such a woman to the king.
Nobody wanted this. Except the two themselves I guess.
As an Amwrican not unfamiliar with manipulation, i find wallis' claims to wish to leave Edward and avoid a constitutional crisis, disingenuous.
She may well have regreted divorcing a good man like ernest. But she was no fool being gamed by a man like edward. She was in comete control and her letters pointing to her innocence, are very convienient. In the end she did not give him up after all.
In hindsight both were not what they appeared and so got exactly what they deserved ......EXILE and a really DIRTY reputation
Ew.
I am really obssessed with Brittains Monarchy since the time of Plantagenets....such never-ending series of controversial entertainment to the rest of the world....love you guys!!!
Britain
Great. Then you should watch Britain bloodiest dynasty. It's a pretty good docu series. It starts from the beginning and come all the way up
It was regularly whispered in their friend's circle, that Wallis had the ability to make a toothpick feel like a cigar...
😂😂😂😂
Wallis was married when she met Edward,,she did not have to see him again ..she should have left with husband
immediately and went back to America. .the king could have married someone else maybe ..status ment more to her ..he was going to be king .
No Nazi kings please!
Have we been watching the same Doc?!
They were all NAZIS!!! Edward was a nazi sympathiser. Thank God he wasn't king
He threatened to commit suicide if she refused to marry him.
@@jeanmarie4462 Did he really? I never knew that
This was a sad story
There are several parallels from Edward & Wallis to Harry & Meghan, except Harry is the 'Spare.' Thank goodness for Prince William!
I see more similarities in Charles and Camilla.
@@irishgurl3078 With a very major exception in that Camilla was not married several times and didn't get a divorce to marry the KCIII.
Actually I see alot more simillarities between Meghan and Diana than Wallis. But I feel for all 3.
The way y'all treat any woman who dares to marry in but doesn't fit the 'Perfect Virginal English Rose' trope is disgusting. Especially Meghan- the blatent racism & classism is truely nasty.
@@jeanmarie4462Niether was Meghan. But it's pretty weird how fixated & judgemental y'all are on woman who dare to divorce and remarry. How dare/s 🙄
@@jeanmarie4462 Why do you think Camilla got divorced in 1995? Charles had been separated since 1992, and divorce was in 1996. Camillagate tape was in 1992.
If Edward hadn’t abdicated, we would all be speaking German today🇺🇸🇬🇧
So what? It’s a good idea to be bilingual and the Brits are very close to the Germans ethnically and culturally. Instead, in a few decades from now, we’ll all be speaking Arabic and Englishwomen won’t be allowed out of the house without their husbands’ permission. You wait and see if I’m not right! 🇬🇧
More's the pity.
Queen Victoria's mother was German. The name of the royal house was Saxe-Coburg Gotha, a distinctly German name. Britain may have not taken part in the holocaust but you were enslaving people via the trans-Atlantic slave trade and via colonization. The only difference between Britain and Germany IS language.
Nothing to do with Edward or any of the Royals, they didn’t win the war for Britain, that was the lives and deaths of ordinary men and women and the canny decisions by the Government led by Winston Churchill. Thankfully present day Queens and Kings have no power, they just get to nod, sign and agree with what’s been decided by the real powers.
And I would have ceased to exist.
It is common for men who exercise great power in public life to seek out masochistic roles in private.
Have to balance the life 😊
There's always been a spin on this couple. Either good or evil. The same can be said of Harry & Meghan. The difference is the former were used as dupes. The latter did it all themselves.
Seriously?
Agree❤
Humanity must evolve to rise above debilitating itself needlessly by unfounded emotion of negativity bias.
I’m glad that Queen Elizabeth become a Queen 👸 instead of Prince Edward.I think,that Prince Edward wouldn’t of made a good king?This is why Royal people can;step aside,and enjoy;the good life!I would think 🤔 that this life would be a hard one to swallow?It’s nice to know that one can be a commoner!Hail to us…..the commoner’s!
Princess Elizabeth did not become Queen instead of her Uncle Edward, her father became King George when Edward abdicated in 1936. Princess Elizabeth became Queen when her father died in 1952.
History is repeating itself. Today world, Edward, and Wallis would be King and Queen
You are very right
@almachapman5409 That was Then, This is Now.
Just look at king charles and his awefull camilla who is much worse that wallis yuk
Aren’t we lucky we escaped that then, and had a fabulous Queen followed by a great King and Queen. Thank goodness Hasbeen and Neverbeen are no longer working royals. If only they would shut up.
@@jeantillotson4091Their names are Harry and Meghan. Maybe you should be the one who should shut up.
Their “romance” had no legs.
Prince George was not with his wife when in a plane crash during military service in 1942. Who writes this narrative? His wife passed in 1968 aged 61.
I’ve never understood why he was considered handsome, I thought he looked a bit effeminate and weak, he certainly didn’t have the height and presence of his 3 brothers. Perhaps there was a fuss made because of his position and title. He was lucky he was given a title of any kind after abdicating as that world of hierarchy he had thumbed his nose at. His wife was also fortunate to get a Duchess title and not being given the HRH was the proper decision. The shocking realisation they must have had as the months went on that they were not going to be allowed to pick up where they left off and come back to Britain setting up what would have become a rivalry between the new King and the ex king. Consequences the ridiculous selfish little man never expected, the entitlement is mind blowing.
I have a 90 year old English friend who told me there was a popular rumour that Edward had gender/sexual issues and Wallis excelled at satisfying his needs.
This was wonderful
To say Edwards name contains 5 saints he wasn't very saintly 😅
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s mentors
What a stupid and ignorant thing to say.
Exactly
They could have found happiness if they had done lots of charity work. Happiness comes from doing things for others. It’s very simple.
..."though his intellect was hardly prodigious." 😂 Brrr...got cold 🥶 right quickly, didn't it? 😂
Wallis was his love over his country 😝
Which shows what a poor King he would have made.
Wallis was his best excuse to give up the throne. It's well documented that Edward NEVER wanted to be King. So, he only dated women who were unavailable and unacceptable. In order to save face, he gave up the throne "for love," instead of the simple fact he was a slacker and wanted to get out of his duty.
Queen always blamed him for her Dad's death as he was sickly.
Edward was selfish and a traitor. Imho
Oh Neil 😂😂😂😂 Welsh ! Im crying with laughter here
Talk about a scheme backfiring! Lol Thanks for saving Britain from a weak Peter Pan king, Wallis.
I think that Wallis Simpson got what she deserved, as did the traitor King. Thank the Lord that the succession was handed to George and then to our dear Queen. Now we have Charles who has been waiting for all of his long life to become King, but in the future we will have the fabulous Prince and Princess of Wales. Not a bad outcome in my opinion 🇬🇧 just watch second half, the bloke was a traitor, I have no sympathy for how his life turned out. Swine

I'm not sure if this is at all True, but apparently she had several affairs (one with a woman) while she was married to Edward. It's well known that she was easily bored and started to resent him.
Her mum was very pretty
Wallis was my cousin for real.
Not something you want to brag about, best not mention it.
Agree
Wallis was unfairly maligned. It's obvious she didn't want to marry Edward, and in letters discovered many years later, she still pined for her ex-husband Ernest and expressed regrets about having married Edward. As far as Edward's threats to kill himself if Wallis abandoned him, that kind of emotional blackmail demonstrated how unfit he was to wear the crown. If he had committed suicide, Wallis could not have been blamed. Despite a life filled with parties and tours, their lives were empty.
It's anyone's guess how Edward would have behaved during the war. His pro-German sympathies made him unsuitable, yet he might have rallied to the British cause.
I take strong exception to Queen Mary's reason for placing the blame for King George VI's premature death. It wasn't the stress of reigning during the war that killed him. It was his compulsive cigarette smoking that gave him lung cancer. Winston Churchill was under tremendous stress during the war but he didn't develop lung cancer. The same is true of just about everyone else involved in the war. Wallis had the misfortune of having outlived Edward for 14 years. That must have been cruel. As a proponent of euthanasia, considering her many terrible health conditions, I believe she would have been better off pulling the plug.
Not Queen Mary. It was the Queen Mum who blamed Wallis. A little unfairly, after all Wallis did not force King George to smoke.
This has a similarly unsettling parallel in the inept Sussexes ... history repeats itself

We should give a hearty thanks to Wallace for taking Edward away from the throne. Thanks to his abdication we later were fortunate to have our wonderful Queen Elizabeth who really knew about duty.
The thanks Meghan is due is for taking Harry away from being a working royal to becoming a laughing stock. At least Wallace knew how to dress unlike Meghan
Don't you have anything better to do than criticize the Duke and Duchess of Sussex? Answer: Apparently not.
@@mariakelly90210 don’t you have anything better to do at all?
Answer: apparently not!
Why does one look like rocco siff
Wallis and Ernest enjoyed the perks and privileges of associating with David. They played fast and loose with their marriage both aware of David's increasing affection. Wallis cut in on Thelma with David. Mary cut in on Wallis with Ernest. I do not pity the any of them for the consequences of poor judgment and weak ethics. Wallis did not have to marry David. She had the funds to live a comfortable single life. It was only that women of her set consider marriage a necessity. However the scandal that descended on Wallis made her unacceptable to any decent man of substance. In that sense, David was her only option for her preferred lifestyle.
Trailer trash wrapped in jewellery
Charles and cam all over again seems like this kind of thing happens every generation and everyone is soooo ready to jump down everyone's throat and ready to crush everyone without thought of they are just people too and life happens and shit happend and who are we to judge anyone 😢
I'm glad that the UK could dodge the bullet during the Nazi led WWII by the abdication of that monarch.
These people are not twin flames it is a cult
The Royal family and the government despised Wallace and David, Edward VIII, They would do anything to discredit him. They were not the the only ones that visited Germany and met with Hitler. I don’t know what the truth is . I look at all of this as a soap opera-not much has changed in the royal family today, e.g., Megan, and Harry. However, her majesty, Queen Elizabeth II is a person who iwas greatly respected and much loved. Charles, now king, is not much different then, his uncle.
I'm not aware that other members of the Royal Family visited Hitler.
Than* his uncle.
*Wallis
At least Wallis didn’t trash the monarchy like Megsie has…
And now they could get married as Charles did ..
They were traitors didn't deserve to be to be king and queen
I think that she was socially ambitious but not kind. I don’t think that she could find a way out of the relationship after the abdication. It is very difficult to be married to an obsessive partner, and I married my one through peer group pressure. It was costly and my spirit was crushed. I wished him away and was broke but free. I love 💕 my freedom and choices and have had a wonderful life. She had no escape and to compromise. She was much disliked. I am kind QED.
It’s extremely easy, in my experience, to remove oneself from an overzealous suitor. Wallis’ problem was not how to get out of marrying Edward, it was how to get rid of him without Edward arranging for Wallis to be shunned from Society for ever afterwards.
As Arthur Miller said “Most people settle for half”. It wouldn’t do for me. I didn’t know how I could secure my freedom but I got on my bike and got a job. @@Woodman-Spare-that-tree
