David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 1m
Our sex life became non existent and she put on weight - Gerard #badenclay

David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 57s
She wanted a boy for my sake, she wanted to continue the #badenclay name @couriermail

yeah, well we gathered that Gered. smh

Hang on - no sex? Then how come Allison had a third child?

 

[Amee]

10:17am: He said his wife longed for a third child - a boy - to continue the Baden-Clay name.

Mr Baden-Clay said he was reluctant to have a third child but acquiesced to please his wife.

"I just wanted to make her happy. I'd always, always, just wanted her to be happy," he said, again wiping tears from his eyes.

Gerard: I felt really bad about it. We both wanted it for the same reasons. Just the sex #badenclay

"Allison wanted a son. I think she wanted a son for my sake." #badenclay @abcnews

I wish this was televised. Then I think we would have a better chance of reading body language. I'm aware that no one here really agrees with me and that's okay, but maybe he is actually upset. Or maybe I'm naive.

I'd like to see him also. If he's being phony, I hope it's obvious.

If he was such an awesome man why didn't he make the effort. It's a know fact that antidepressants can affect your libidos. A little more effort and romance and time makes all the difference instead of finding it elsewhere. Just saying

Having affairs usually doesn't mean a man is trying to make his wife happy, does it? Then again, what do I know?

Gerard says they were making money and investing it back into the business. Says they charged the maximum fee for selling. #badenclay

We are up to the year 2006. Gerard is sniffling but not crying as he talks about building the business #badenclay

"sniffling not crying"

 

[Mountain Misst]

I just wanted to make her happy I just wanted to have sex. The etymology of 'Just' is the same as 'justice' - IMO he's trying to justify... not a good idea when you're in someone else's 'justice' realm. That's a challenge to the bench for power.

Gerard says he's not up to date with real estate laws, 'I've been out of it for a couple of years now' #badenclay

Gerard says the anti-depressants caused Allison to lose her libido and their sex life became non existent. #badenclay

Gerard says Allison wanted to have a boy for his sake, to carry on the Baden-Clay name.

Gerard: Allison just really wanted to have a son. I really didn't want another child. #badenclay

How TF can he do this to his own child, the littlest one - his baby??!!! :furious:

The tears are for himself only. His spiel depends on where he spends the next twenty or so years.
