That's my point. Everyone's making up shit, and I'm the one who has to put my foot down.

How could they know if I'd flashed those people?


Beehive people thought that The Prime Omelette made it up.

It's hard enough being a man in a dress. I don't need people calling me a kiddie fiddler. Not to mention a compulsive flasher that's 'only' a fetishist and not really trans... - As for the allegations:


Luc, Nico and Sasha were all teenagers, not kids. I was alone with Jason's kids, and they saw me like a babysitter. As a straight closet case, I was welcome around most children. - Blocking release of the documentary about Chloe is fairly easy imo.

If Paul backs me up saying that the Swarbrick clan were defamed, then it's a winner.


It's also difficult to ignore the elephant in the room: the massive series that Chloe and I starred in. Despite not being on TV, it's been widely seen. The Dakumentary is something of a Kiwi icon. It's slowly going global. The very idea that they would use a documentary to blackmail us means that the film wasn't really done in good faith. It always had an agenda, as numerous critics have said.

The producers say they didn't make money, but I lost money on The Dakumentary. I personally invested more in The Dakumentary than all of Portrait of a Knight. My estimate is something like $50-70,000 over six years, including board. I joked that the film should allow me to buy a house, but Macca might make that happen.
