This is my #1 question. She probably thinks they are forever, right? Or else why would she be so public and talking about it the way she does? But what are the chances it works out? Pretty small, right?

So, when Jen’s relationship ends with Tyler, will we even know? That is definitely not something she will announce. And, we know she’s good at faking it. So really we won’t know for a long time. I’m sure they will remain the best of friends and split amicably…

Ok, enough of trying to steer this in another direction. That’s really not all that interesting nor is Brandon a fraud that we’ve all first hand witnessed. What happened with Brandon is not really what we are all here for, is it Jen?


Not PP, but I’m here for both Jen and Brandon drama (and Tyler and Texas Barbie). It’s really dumb to accuse people of being Jen. I’m sure she’d have the thread shut down rather than commenting with theories and leads.


Ummm….she can’t just have a thread shut down…if she could, this would already be gone.

Plus the sisters have this intellectual superiority thing that’s grating. Abby is more in the moment and honestly I appreciate her less rehearsed responses.
I’ve wondered if Abby was seeking a missing maternal love being last of many children in her Catholic home. She even said that having Glennon take charge during their first time made her feel nurtured. My heart kind aches for her. It often seems she’s an upgraded Craig: great with the kids, running their everyday lives, cooking, and soccer. Everyone around Glennon serves Glennon. She’s the matriarch but if they don’t please her there’s a price to pay with her disapproval.


This is soooo accurate. Abby absolutely views Glennon as a motherly figure, and I also think she loves the closeness of having a big family with kids, etc. Glennon’s constant bragging about being a princess, lazy, irresponsible just wears me out. It’s confusing because she writes a book about being independent and strong yet her entire social presence is her bragging about being helpless. If you watch their videos, it’s almost always Glennon baby talking, whining, bragging about how unproductive and messy she is while Abby holds their life down. It’s very clear that Abby just feels sooo lucky to have Glennon, and Glennon knows it.

Yes. This. 100%. Plus Glennon interrupts Abby so much. One episode (maybe the Enneagram one?) was really, really bad. And, of course, Glennon has basically all but shamed Abby for being an "interrupter." Glennon is controlling. She has admitted it many times. It comes across in her podcasts.

Anyway, I should go to the Glennon thread if I want to continue down this path. LOL.

And it’s awesome that their love affair worked out, but the whole way she described it happening just reeked of codependency. I love them together, but gah Abby is a saint for putting up with all of Glennon’s whining and acting like a little helpless girl. She’s very confusing. Abby on the other hand, is amazing!

The thing that helps her stand out from Jen is how she has a basic understanding of addictions, relapse and recovery. She even recently outed her own bulemia relapse. I keep wondering if she’ll lovingly confront Jen cause there’s no way she can’t see the dysfunction. Then again as a recovering codependent she may just let her have her journey. Agree Glennon feels way more authentic. She also didn’t paint herself as a Bible scholar. She seemed more of a “I really like this Jesus but not so sure about these Christians” kind of gal. Whereas Jen set herself up as a spokesperson on all things Christian woman.


Glennon likely is in a different stratosphere financially than Jen, and doesn't need to hawk/shill. She's married to Abby Wambach, they have a $6+ million home in LA, part ownership in the NWSL team Angel City, etc.

There are several things that bother me about Glennon, too. I am not sure how much authenticity we really get from any of these people. Glennon, who SHOULD have a good knowledge base around addiction/recovery, just "happened" to meet Abby at book conference and fall in love, all within a few months of Abby's DUI in 2016. If Glennon really followed the rules of recovery, she would have never pursued Abby in the early stages of her recovery. Just sayin'.

I think Glennon is fame-hungry. She certainly didn't fall in love with just any woman. And the way she (and her sister) treat Abby on their podcast sometimes is atrocious (IMHO).


What do you mean about how they treat Abby? I’m not a big fan, but I’m familiar enough and have listened to a few podcasts recently. Didn’t pick up on that though.

I know it’s probably because it’s new and fresh and she has a banging body, but he also says she’s kind and makes him feel appreciated. Makes me wanna start appreciating my husband more tbh. I bet poor Jen’s ego was hit hard when he got together with her.


Whenever people write things like “gah” and “fresh” and “insta” and “banging body” I feel like it’s an imposter. Texas Barbie? Brandon himself?


Lol nope it’s just me, just a dumb hick from the south trying to sound cool on an anonymous board. 😂😂😂😂 I promise I cannot stand her or any Christian celeb as much of the rest of y’all. But this made me laugh. We saw gah a lot where I’m from. But also, I do really think he looks much happier than some selfies I’ve seen of him and Jen over the years.

What happened in the weird meltdown?

Well before the divorce Brandon would sometimes post videos on Facebook and Instagram. His eyes were like pinpricks.

Jen had to have known. Had to have.

Especially after the weird meltdown that occurred during one of his last ANC sermons.

We need a forensic accountant to really look into Legacy Collective/Pure Charity.
