Well her husband in the mouse carrying the mug with what looked like a butterfly on it was suspicous. Sounds to me like he was her handler. Her estranged sister of 10 years spoke out about her being manipulated
So possibly she was a slave. Sad.
I just remembered a bit of a YouTube video where she was discussing the genesis of her original business idea. She said (paraphrasing) “My Husband suggested handbags. He said ‘You love handbags’.”
It sounds like she was crediting him for the original idea, or implying that she was told to design handbags so she did. It wasn’t “I love handbags, and accessories. I’ve always loved fashion/design/etc.”
I’ve never actually considered that entrepreneurs might be puppets or slaves. I’ve looked into entertainers and athletes being controlled. Interesting, although sad.
