What’s was Mollys motive? I’m 1/2 way through.

She didn’t want to lose the kids when it was becoming clear the marriage was over

Oh got it! But do you think that she had ulterior motives going INTO the marriage or just when she thought the marriage was over ? It touches in the documentary but I wish they talked more about it.

It’s a good question…. I think she wanted a ready-made family and I am prepared to believe that her original plan was to raise the children as his wife HOWEVER she was pushing for adoption even in the pre-marital emails so the kids were honestly the main motive. Then she made them move across the ocean for reasons that were not immediately apparent (her parents lived 4 hours away) so I wasn’t sure what the deep thinking was…
