Noted, thanks. It’s been a while and all I remember was she was very vocal about it all.

Yup, I’m also a social worker and I think you’re right on. Plus pregnant women get positive attention, even from total strangers, and that makes him feel threatened and jealous. 

This is only my (very uninformed) opinion, but I would put it down to two things. The first is stress. Pregnancy is SUCH a stressful time for all parents who are in the picture, whether that be health stress, financial stress, or simply “my world as I know it is ending” stress.

That would be the Occam’s Razor in this case which is what I usually tend to favor. I’m only inclined to want to believe the batshit gossip theory because we’re talking about Scientology’s favorite son.

Oh wow, I totally didn’t realize Daniel Kaluuya played Posh Kenneth. I feel a little embarrassed now.
