Unexpectedly, Monica Lewinsky—who rose to fame as a result of her role in one of the most notorious political scandals in American history—has returned to the news. This time, the motivation is significantly more profound and intimate. It has been alleged that Monica Lewinsky left behind a significant fortune that has her family in tears.
In recent years, Lewinsky, who is currently in her 50s, has mainly avoided the spotlight in favor of her advocacy work, writing, and public speaking. Lewinsky had a turbulent history and endured intense public scrutiny, but she went on to have a great career and accumulate a sizable fortune. Her family is astonished and saddened by the revelation of her wealth that came to light after her recent passing.
Lewinsky did not have an easy time getting wealthy. She had a difficult time getting back on her feet following the incident, dealing with a lot of personal and professional obstacles. She was able to remake herself, nonetheless, because of her tenacity and resolve. After graduating from the London School of Economics with a master’s degree in social psychology, she went on to become a well-known author and speaker, tackling topics like public humiliation and cyberbullying.
Millions of people watched her TED Talk on the subject of public humiliation, which enhanced her standing as a formidable change agent. She also started working as a producer, contributing to films and projects that discussed her experiences as well as the wider effects of public humiliation in the digital era.
Even though Lewinsky was well-known in the public, she was surprisingly quiet about her financial situation. The entire size of her riches was not disclosed until her will was read. Through her numerous pursuits, such as television initiatives, speaking engagements, and book sales, Lewinsky had amassed a wealth. Her family has since received this windfall, which is reportedly worth several million dollars; nevertheless, they were not aware of the entire extent of her success.
Lewinsky’s family sent a statement expressing their sincere appreciation and grief. “Monica was a devoted sister and daughter, and we were daily inspired by her tenacity and fortitude. Her kindness and the impact she leaves behind astound us. We will never forget the good effects she had on so many lives and her contributions to society.
Lewinsky’s tale demonstrates her amazing capacity to change her life in face of overwhelming circumstances. Her financial legacy is evidence not only of her accomplishments but also of her dedication to providing for her family and changing the world for the better. Even if her death signifies the end of an era, her influence and the results of her labor will have a lasting effect.
Her family finds solace in the knowledge that Monica Lewinsky left behind a legacy of fortitude, empathy, and unwavering strength as they cope with their loss. Her life, which was filled with incredible highs and lows, is a potent reminder of the ability for human rebirth as well as the eternal value of compassion and advocacy.
Dad & fiancée exclude his daughter from their wedding after she bought a dress & shoes for it
Reddit is the place where people share stories of their life and ask fellow redditors for advice and opinion on the decision they make.
A teenage girl recently shared that her dad and his wife-to-be excluded her from their wedding and she explained the reasons behind that heartbreaking decision.
“I (f18) was always pretty close to my dad. Closer to my mom but I often visited my dad (about 3-4 times a week). A few years ago he started dating “Anna”. Anna and I always got along when my dad proposed I was happy Anna seemed like she would be a great stepmom,” she started her post.
OP said that she was overly excited and was looking forward to the wedding. She bought a dress and shoes, but then her dad told her that he and his fiancée needed to talk to her about something important.
“Well a few weeks before the wedding after I had bought everything (dress, shoes, etc) my dad and Anna said they needed to “talk to me” Anna and my dad decided to have a child free wedding which I get especially for young kids.
“Well turns out child-free means no one under 18. On the day of the wedding, I was still going to be 17 so, therefore, I’m not allowed to be at the wedding because Anna wants to stay true to the child-free rule even for the daughter of the groom and her about-to-be stepdaughter.”
Devastated, OP told her mom what her dad and Anna said to her. The mom was as heartbroken as her daughter and decided to take her on vacation so that she cheer up. At the same time, the mom told the rest of the family what her ex-husband did to their daughter. Understandably, most of them were shocked and angry.
Later, OP posted birthday pictures on Facebook and wrote, “I’m so glad my dad and Anna didn’t allow me at their wedding since I was under 18; I feel more mature since yesterday.”
“The family was freaking out asking if that was true and bashing my dad and Anna. I later got a bunch of texts from my dad and Anna calling me immature and a selfish brat and that’s why I was too immature to be at a wedding. I was talking to some friends and they said I was kinda an AH for doing that and I should have just let it go.”
Fellow redditors shared their opinions and agreed that OP wasn’t an AH for telling the family what her dad did to her.
“NTA. What kind of man doesn’t have his own child at his wedding? Anyway, they made the choice, if they believe it was the right choice they should have no issue about it being publicly known. Plus, people might well assume you weren’t there because you disapproved of his new wife or chose a vacation instead. Ensuring people know WHY you weren’t there saves your own reputation,” one person commented.
“The no children was made for you. I’m sorry but let that sink in. She made that rule to keep you out. You now know where you stand in their marriage…you don’t. I’m so sorry. NTA. I personally think it was EPIC. Harsh but epic. They deserved more than that. I would even update it with pictures of their texts,” another added.
A third wrote, “I can’t help but wonder if she purposefully pick a date before OP birthday just so she couldn’t go. If the dad & step-mom wanted to make it child free but make sure OP was there they could have made sure the date was AFTER OP birthday but to make it just 2 days before….. nah they didn’t want her there & was just trying to use that as an excuse.”
We believe the dad was not right for excluding his own daughter from the wedding.
