You really think they would care??


Um, yes? Didn’t he also move her out to LA and paid her college tuition at UCLA so he could control her and service him? He groomed a child and then took over her life — at least for a few years.



This accusing everything of being “grooming” is getting silly. It’s not like he met her when she was 14 and “groomed” her for years. They met towards the end of her senior year in HS. I seem to recall that she started college on the east coast, and later on transferred to LA to be close to him, and yes he did pay for her tuition. That’s not “grooming”, that’s having a rich and famous boyfriend.



She attended GWU while I was a student there. And yes, me and my friends thought he was a creep then!

Oh he is creepy but she got something out of the relationship. She came from what would be considered a normal family background- ie not like the children jerry sandusky or jeffrey epstein targeted. I imagine she got a lot of attention from boys her age and older. Maybe she just thought he is rich and famous why not. It must have been flattering? I will say in college a 25 year old man or women seemed so old...a 38 year old...ancient.

What a dumb, anti woman thread.

Women get to choose who they want to date.


Is a 17yo a woman?


She turned 18 a couple of months after they met. That’s considered a woman, yes.


A high school senior living at home is not a grown woman, it's a kid who happens to turn 18 during high school.

She's 45-years-old now. How is this even a story?

I have no idea. She's middle aged now - and this wasn't a secret when it was happening.

He has a memoir coming out tomorrow. Apparently no mention of the high school g/f.

Really? When did you go to college? I went to college in the mid 90s, and most of the guys I dated were in their mid 20s.

By senior year I was 21 myself (and 22 when I graduated) so the the thought that 25 seemed "so old" is...odd.

OMG. The 90s were so crazy.

Apparently, Jerry wouldn't go on Howard's show for over 15 years because Howard ripped him so hard over Shoshanna.

Sounds like she left him because LA was not for her and she didn't like the press attention.

Smart of her.

But her life has gone well, she's been a fashion designer, lives on the upper east side and is on the board of her synagogue. Why make a victim out of her if she hasn't said she is one?

If she is legally underage, then yes.


17 is over the age is consent, and apparently she turned 18 before the actually started dating. They dated for 5 years. It's not something I would do, but it does not appear to be abusive.


It's still creepy and not okay.


Her parents let her. From what I recall from the NY Post, he'd send a car to go pick her up at her parents UWS apartment.


So what.

There are also places where people sell their daughters to old rich men. It is still not okay.

This still happens on the UES and UWS. Lots of young women married to their dads’ business partners.
