I have never dragged any friend or ex online for the sake of it. But my public figure husband cheated on me with another public figure, publicly, while fans cheered them on thinking it was fiction.
I think a public conclusion is appropriate.

Any event I go to, people talk to me about Jared. Innocuous stuff about how they're fans of him too, or whatever.
Dealing with that while being abused by him was excruciating. I needed to tell people what happened to escape this.

He feels entitled to silence me. He thinks it's his right to keep his infidelity a secret, as though his reputation outweighs my trauma.

But this is my story too. This is what I lived through. I don't need anyone's permission to share my own experience.

Tbh I don't even want people to hate Jared. That's not the point. I don't hate him. I think he needs help and I hope he gets it.

My story and pain are still valid, and being able to finally share this after a year of suppressing it is the most liberating experience I've ever had
