She's so abusive. No matter how manipulative, vindictive, indignant, or physical Ingrid gets, Regan just takes it. Say what you want about him, at least he's trying to be a better husband. He's been bending over backwards to step up, but she hasn't changed a bit. Ingrid is a gaslighting, victim playing narcissist hiding behind a pretty face. Regan deserves better.

Yeah man she really did the “ill butter you up before marriage, but once we married. Imma fuck you up.” Though she was being shady before marriage, her attitude really got worse after.
Regan may be rash and high tempered.
But I gotta give regan some credit for facing his addictions. At least he’s going in a good direction towards change.

That's normal in any marriage even now. Emel wasn't her dad or brother or any other relative. He wasn't a nanny or a caretaker. He was not responsible for her upbringing. He was just one of several guards she had. There was no "grooming". Estelle was not raised to be his child bride and brainwashed to do whatever he wanted without question along with complete acceptance. People on here are throwing out terms without even knowing the actual meaning.

My thoughts exactly! I think people also forget this isn’t that big of an age gap. People even now a days are marrying with age gaps up or maybe even more than 10-20 years apart. Where this story is set is way back in the day, where it was the norm for very young girls ~10ish to be marrying to men who were the age of their own dads. Plus, this entire story is completely fictional so I don’t understand why people are throwing hands

You obviously neither liked nor even respected her as a human being. Take the fresh start she's given both of you and stop pretending like you give a crap. You only care about yourself so get on with that
