1 tim 11 min•12 oktober 2026

Om avsnittet

Zoe Watts was shocked to discover the man she had been married to for 22-year was drugging and raping her. 

Laura interviews Zoe and asks her to take us back to the beginning of their relationship- when she was just 17 and he was 28. He was charismatic, well-liked and seemingly the perfect partner. But as Laura asks more questions, she reveals a deeply disturbing, diabolical and dangerous man who knew what he was doing. This did not come out of the blue. 

In this episode, Laura and Zoe unravel: 

  • Grooming, love bombing and gaslighting 

  •  Strangulation and suffocation 

  • Drug-facilitated rape 

  • Stalking and coercive control 

  • DARVO  

  • Red flags disguised as romance 

  • The “mask of sanity” and impression management 

  • Those who backed up the abuse 

Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of domestic abuse, coercive control, stalking, suffocation, sexual violence and drug-facilitated rape. 

Be curious, ask questions and always trust your instincts.
