Paige

Honestly, I really hate that Paige had to be here at all. The whole thing just seemed like an opportunity for her to relive probably one of the most traumatic or thee most traumatic eight weeks of her life. And there were even some new moments of which she was not aware, like when Chris told Pastor Cal he wasn’t attracted to her face. It was vile.

And what made a bad situation worse was the fact that people kept complimenting Paige on her grace. True, she was graceful but she was also enduring abuse, mentally, verbally and emotionally. And I don’t think we should be encouraging women, especially Black women to take sh*t with a smile. In the midst of Chris’ outbursts, she was still going out to comfort and soothe him. She was consistently asked to recount her feelings in hurtful moments. There were times when it seemed Kevin wanted her to offer an explanation for Chris’ behavior in his absence. And what was perhaps that saddest part was that she still felt the need to apologize for him.

Nancy said that Chris and Paige’s relationship will inspire conversation but all of it comes at Paige’s expense. It’s tragic. And for that reason I’m glad this season is over. The next time I hear from Paige I want it to be when sis is healed from the hell Chris put her through.
