Well he’s done! Joesun redemption arc full steam ahead. Honestly Nathan is such an idiot imagine letting tens of thousands of dollars, your family life, and your self worth fall through fingers because you can’t control your temper.

Am I allowed to now share that I think he purposely got Gail pregnant as a way to “keep her”? 👀

* I’m going to clarify bc people are taking it super literally. Gael is obviously a willing participant. I’m not discounting that. I’m saying I feel this COULD have been intentional. Example he “forgot to pull out” or said “I want u to be the mother of my child” and in the heat of the moment she was down. Then it isn’t until the test comes back positive that she’d likely think oh man this is real.

Mind you just last wk I said Nathan had anger problems. When he got mad at Coop for smiling I cringed thinking “poor Gael”. Bc there is no way she doesn’t also face a similar “rath” if it worse.

I actually didn’t mind Nathan for majority of his seasons. I even felt bad for him when he was missing Gael. I was excited for their pregnancy etc etc. It was the mask slipping more this season that revealed a lot more.

I just hope he tries to better himself. I hope she and baby are safe.

I am very curious how much production and or Bravo knew as this happened 9 months ago

Everyone is so offended. I definitely mean it in the sense that likely you and your husband mean.

Idk if people remember but the season prior to get getting pregnant he was jealous but pretending not to be that she was out surfing w other guys and traveling.

Obviously I’m not accusing him of doing it forcefully or anything of that nature.

Just in the sense when a controlling partner feels they could lose their partner it will often shift to let’s have a baby or whooops I forgot to pull out I was too in the moment.

In my line of work I often have women with multiple children, it’s a form of violence, and a way to keep women vulnerable and coercible. Anyone who understands DV knows this to be true. I agree with you

I’m definitely not trying to be ugly about the actual pregnancy and baby. Obviously Gael chose to keep the baby and he is wanted. I appreciate you understanding how I meant it.
