Ghislaine was also born after the loss of the eldest son which seemed to screw things even more weirdly. It’s a good read tbh.

I haven't but a cursory knowledge of Maxwell's upbringing but the statement to me doesn't seem outrageous. I agree she deffo knew what she was doing and it isn't an excuse.
