“There was a lot behind the scenes that wasn’t shown that would explain how she got to that point,” Shawn told us. “They didn’t show what he did to instigate that. All you have to do is watch the show and see what he says. ‘I’m taking the kid…I’m taking her forever.’ He held Leah over her head.”

“He’s a mind game; he thinks he can play mind games. He holds that baby over her head,” Shawn explains about the father of his granddaughter Leah.
