“He knows exactly why we can’t have the relationship that we would have liked to have with him.”
“He was my everything. For a long time, I didn’t even want to believe that it happened. I didn’t know that, even if he was a bad person, that he would do something to me.”
“I really feel like that one millisecond completely just changed my whole life,” she says, referring to Kelly’s conviction, adding of her future child, “If my son asks questions, I’m going to be as truthful as possible. And I will not be taking my son to prison to meet his grandfather.”
