“Ryan’s friends were literally worse than Adrian [Araouzou’s] friends,” Jacqui recalled.

“They cut the part out where Ryan’s mate literally got out of his seat and yelled at me. It was scary.”

“This tells you he’s not a man. And he needs others to fight his battles,” she added. “Hardly a ‘warrior’ mentality… He’s gutless.”
