One thing I noticed was that during FD interviews, he uses the word “enamored” about MT. Notice he does not say love. I would say that their relationship was in honeymoon phase. He found someone who “needs” him- translation - enhances his self-esteem, and she found someone who showered her with attention that she craves. Like the article says, it’s a fast falling, idealistic, superficial relationship. They both feel they’ve met their “dream’ mate. One problem- he’s married. They both don’t want to give up the relationship because it fulfills each of their needs. Enter the the other problem- FD can’t let JD go because she is his meal ticket. Instead of taking responsibility, he wants it all so he can’t do the right thing and divorce. You notice the lies he told in the tv interview early on, he said the marriage didn’t work out quite nonchalantly, that’s true it didn’t BUT what he didn’t say was that HE wanted to keep the relationship. JD wanted to move on but HE didn’t. However, that’s not what he wants the public to believe. There are many signs that he didn’t want to let her go- not letting her move out, telling her that they will all live together(with paramour), stalling the divorce proceedings using all kinds of tactics. He wasn’t amicably letting JD go. BUT, he didn’t want to give up MT either because she feeds his self esteem. In his mind he HAD and deserved to have it all. So now JD is taking away his meal and life ticket, he is ANGRY at her so devises a ‘revenge fantasy’ because that’s the way his mind works as we heard from JD herself during the divorce proceedings. That is the motive and he had the anger to devise and complete it, how dare JD take his privileged, beautiful life away. He told us with his own mouth- he had a beautiful life. But what he defines , in his mind, as a beautiful life is different than what most of us do. Normal people would say a beautiful life was family, children, good fami,y, friends but HIS beautiful life was getting his self esteem fed via his relationship with MT and his lifestyle fed via JD’s money. He told us the motive- to keep his beautiful life. But he lied when he said he wanted the divorce over. He didn’t. The longer it stalled, the more he kept his beautiful life. When the courts started closing in on him, making him responsible for child support, insurance, finances, appropriate child visitation, he went through with his revenge fantasy. Follow the money. He doesn’t love MT so she better realize this and come clean . She was just a pawn to feed his self esteem and he will let her go in a flash when she no longer fills that job. Yes, he had the motive and anger to plan and complete it. The question is did she.
