Hi all. I do have an update on a post I made a few months ago, Mandy posted that her husband has left. Have you been following this? We tried to warn her. Posting this because there were so many red flags. In short she is a public figure with millions of followers who built her whole brand on being a single woman. She announced she got married within a couple weeks of reuniting with the toxic ex who cheated on her a man she wrote about in her books. When people called her out, she was rude/condescending and looked down on single people and on her personal FB talked about how she was glad she was not one of those single people anymore despite building her entire name and platform on addressed to single women. See her recent posts below.
I am not a fan of her attitude during their marriage I think she was very harmful to the single women she writes for but I hope she heals from this toxic cycle and hopefully learns from this and never goes back. I hope she realizes not to look down on single women— the very audience she built her platform on and hope one day she recognizes the harm she did with her messaging when all this happened. She was basically promoting going back to a toxic ex to vulnerable women without any disclaimers or warnings. She put the status of marriage over the welfare of the women she was supposed to help and was very smug in calling anyone who tried to warn about the red flags haters or “miserable” single people. And she didn’t intervene when pick me readers commented saying the same, which is bizarre because her books are all about de-stigmatizing singlehood.

This is a testimony that there are no exceptions - ever - and you absolutely cannot love someone to be a good and healthy person (or partner). It just doesn't work that way. He showed her time and time again his true colours, but she refused to see them. She is actually extremely lucky that her husband left her before getting violent! The trash took itself out.
Oooooh boy. She's truly neck deep in delulu land. I sincerely hope she can snap out of it eventually.
When I tell you I was WAITING for you to post this because I wanted to read your thoughts about the situation.
I read Mandy’s post shortly after she published it and I have to admit….I have a hard time feeling any sympathy or empathy for her. I’m sorry for her to have to go through this so publicly but at the same time, I don’t know how many times this man has to make it clear that he’s not that into her (or really, into her at all from what I can tell).
Her updates on what she’s been doing since he left are peak cringe. “Laying on the floor” girl you are 45 years old, what are you doing?! If you want to lay around and mope, at least lay on the damn couch! I genuinely don’t know what to think at this point.
Oh wow! I didn’t see any news on her FB but apparently it’s on her TikTok. That’s wild she decided to jump in gung ho rather than practice caution knowing these cycles often repeat. I hope she knows never to shame single women or anyone who warns her again knowing what he’s capable of even as a husband…I don’t know what to say either! Such a strange situation!! Hope none of her followers use it as inspiration or get false hope.
And apparently he came back now and she’s all giddy and all of this is so terribly embarrassing and pathetic. I genuinely don’t know what to say.
