This podcast is intended for mature audiences and could be triggering to some. Please use
discretion when listening.
The majority of audio from this episode is from the first interview I conducted with Sarah.
In August of 2018, also the first day we met.
It was about 10 weeks after Sarah was supposed to be married. This was the first time Alyssa or I
had heard the full story. And though I have put many, many hours into cleaning this recording up
for the podcast, you may hear more, size, chair moving, interrupting, and pacing the usual. But it's real life and it's
insane. And here we go. I'm Tiffany Reese and this is something was wrong. You don't know me well.
And so he had me questioning my own real experiences. And it really, really pulls the rug out from under your identity
because it causes you to question your entire childhood.
Stuff that I held is dear, that I had seen as physical proof.
Now I'm thinking, was my life a lie?
I honestly, and then it really, really wrecked me.
And it can start to kind of turn you into a shell of a lie. I honestly, and then it really, really wrecked me. And it can start to kind of turn you into a
shell of a person because your past really does build you and who you are. So she, you know, my boss
is wife was sitting me down and saying, I know you. I know what makes you you and I know why people
love you. And I am seeing that those are the things that are changing. That is not something that
should change in a healthy relationship.
It should grow. It should flourish. It should be stronger.
You should be given space to develop and this is opposite of that.
And yeah, praise hands and chin.
And I, I mean, I was terrified. I was at, because I thought, okay. And never did I think maybe this shouldn't happen.
I just thought we have a long road of convincing
to go because I was convinced.
And you're not, I mean, and you're getting married
in a week.
Oh, week.
Yeah, and I kept thinking, why are you doing this to me?
Why is this my life?
I've worked so hard and I have asked over and over.
Please tell me, please tell me.
And so you're telling me eight days before my wedding. Sorry, you lost your chance. I'm convinced you all will be convinced over time. So I was so convinced
that I was doing the right thing that I was willing to wait and let everybody else see the light
later. Because keep in mind, I had came in the back by mine saying, I married somebody my parents
did not approve of. And they bought in after a year later. So you're saying she would say like, don't worry, you can have people don't buy.
She might literally say, you're going to get this, you might get this, if you get this
reaction, you know, stick through it.
Yeah, kind of thing.
And we would get an argument where Kim and I would get very passionate in saying things
like, well, I mean, you happen to live a lifestyle where you make decisions to please the community
and I just don't happen to live under that.
And I'd be like, oh, you know, obviously reading into that
and going, I'm a people pleaser and she's not, you know,
she does what she wants and I don't.
So in my mind, I'm thinking this is time to choose
what I want because she would say things like,
well, do you do everything your parents want you to do?
I mean, you are 30 years old.
So this is not a decision between you and your family. And I'm like, well, he's not my husband yet.
And I would tell that to my mom. And my mom would say, he's not your husband yet. And I,
but for some reason, the words would go in one ear and out the other because Kim is telling
me your family is very codependent. They all live within a 50 mile radius of each other.
They all, you know, make decisions based on what everybody else wants.
Nobody branches out, so you're trying to do that.
Naturally, you're going to get friction.
So now we've got people wondering and asking,
and I'm already ready to fight it.
So now things are falling apart,
and so I'm stealing myself even more,
going, okay, I'm bracing for impact.
Here it is, time to be strong and stick to my guns.
Friday, I just kind of shoved it out of my brain,
I went through work and then that night,
I got on my face on the ground in my room
and I was just like, okay, God, you're gonna have to fix this.
You're gonna have to convince people,
you're gonna have to work this out.
I don't know which way this is gonna go,
but I'm just gonna trust you.
So Saturday morning, I'm supposed to head down
to my parents' house from a bachelor at party.
I stopped at our house first, where of course my fiance has
a huge breakfast ready for me. And there's worship music on the background and everything.
And there's this song, reckless love, and it's talking about how God leaves the 99 to
rescue. And for there's something kind of in like my heart that sort of pulled for
that. I've never heard it before. And it was like listen to this, listen to this. And I
went, hey, babe, can you turn that up?
And he goes in, and they kind of go off the rails
in this album, but sure, you know, it cranks it up.
Oh my god.
So you put it on bitch.
I hate it.
I hate it.
So we have this great breakfast.
And I just feel this, like we have good conversation.
Everything's fine.
In fact, Friday night, the night before,
had not been a good night between him and me.
Now that I think about it, the tensions had been high and I was just like, what the heck?
And I just kind of, but he knew from me that I was good.
I was not questioning things.
I think maybe I told Kimmy what was going on.
So Saturday morning, after Friday night, I was a very tense night,
we went like, he was at our new house, I was at my place, we both went to bed, like it was weird.
Saturday morning, he wakes me up with a FaceTime call from bed, which he never does, and he's super
silly. And I actually remember thinking, what is this, Jacqueline Hyde? Like, this is not, you know,
not that I'm going to remain mad after last night, but this is not consistent with where we were last
night. This is a very different person. So I thought, maybe he's just really trying to smooth things You know, not that I'm gonna remain mad after last night, but this is not consistent with where we were last night
This is a very different person. So I thought maybe he's just really trying to smooth things over and have fun
Like great, I'll come over, you know, we'll have fun sort of thing because we just it deserve to have fun before a wedding
We like have breakfast and everything and I'm just like love you
You know see you later and on the road down to Dixon. I am blasting this new song
I'm just discovered a reckless love and I'm praying and I just have this huge sense of
everything's gonna be fine. Oh my gosh, I'm gonna know and I had this gut sense
that tomorrow, which was a Sunday, tomorrow will be pivotal. I kept just like
really, really feeling that in my gut and thought, I said, you God, is that like, you
know what you're telling me this? So I was just like, great! I took that to me
tomorrow. Everything's gonna be good. So go to my Bachelorette party
and I know that some of my close friends there know some of the drama. I know that
you know my mom has been questioning things because we're all super close. So I'm
just like, look, party's on, everybody. I mean I wasn't planning on canceling
anything but we had decided there's either two things gonna happen. So I was
gonna continue with the wedding and the bachelor at party was going to be a
full on bachelor at party or Sarah was going to cancel the wedding and we are going to
party anyway and we're going to be there to support her and we're going to have so much wine
and Sarah walked in the door like she was ready for a bachelor at party. What are we doing?
Today is going to be great and it was just like, we wait, what?
This is so weird.
It was like, it was like yesterday,
how it even happened.
So, whenever Sarah was on earshot,
all of us girls would be like,
what is going on?
It was the weirdest, like, and thing ever.
And then, not evening,
there was supposed to be a late night party.
It was supposed to be,
I had games planned
We were gonna get some the desserts, but we came back from I think we did in a state room and everybody went home except for three goals and it was
The awkwardest thing in the world. They all left in the three girls
stayed and they're open that for presents and they were like
sex, not sex toys, but like sex related guests and
sex, not sex toys, but like sex-related gifts. And at times they're like, oh my gosh, this has got to be so hard for my mom to watch.
Not because it's about sex, but because it's about her daughter that she's hoping the wedding is called on.
She's watching her open gifts that have to do with her.
See on say that mom thinks it's a wolf and I just wanted our friends to go home.
They went home and mom and dad said I think dad
She was gonna leave Sarah was gonna leave grab on her stuff and she was leaving and I think it was dad said
We I want to talk to you and she was like well
Well, is it gonna take a while? I've got to get home to do some stuff and I said
You you planned for a whole party tonight. What do you mean you have to go home and do stuff?
This ended it way earlier than you had expected it to.
She's like, yeah, well, but I mean now that it did end early,
I think she said that like another it did end early.
There's stuff I can get done.
So, you know, is this talk going to be long?
And I think that response was something to the effect
of it doesn't matter.
It's going to take over long.
It's going to take.
We want to talk to you.
And in that moment, I thought I'm getting out.
I don't need to be here.
This is gonna get intense.
I can feel it.
Everybody finally goes and my parents
sit me down in the backyard.
And that's when my mom kind of starts in
with this weird stuff of like,
we don't like something's wrong.
We just don't feel right.
And what do you have to say about this and this?
I'm just like, are we going around this mountain again?
Seriously, the gay days out would you let let me would you just give me a break?
And it kind of gets a little more into it a little more into it
I'm going okay, they haven't said what they want to say yet and that's when you can tell like my mom would rather have died
Then said the next word she said we are actually formally asking you to postpone your wedding
formally asking you to postpone your wedding.
I honestly, when we talked to her and said, we need to ask you to just put this off.
Not stop it, it's too quick, just put it off.
I, at the time we did that, didn't feel it was right.
Because I thought we've allowed her to go too far,
not allowed her, we couldn't stop her anyway,
she was gonna go forward, but we've gone this far
before we said, put it it off and I didn't
for the right time we did it and it didn't know near what we learned over the next few days after we
did that. But what we learned was like, oh my gosh, I was ready to just go with this. And then if she
hadn't said Rose hadn't said we need to ask her to put it off, I would have just gone with it.
It's scary.
I actually have probably gotten married into a notice, you know, what would have happened
after that.
What if you were trafficked into a cult over shot nine times or fell in love with a vampire
or went into a minor surgery and woke up one week later, paralyzed. What would you do?

Here it from my dad, my dad's never ever asked, you know, obviously like anything like
this and it was different coming from my dad.
I could see the fear, I could see the concern and my dad is not easily rattled by anything.
If anything, he's kind of disengaged from things My mom is a little over engaged at typical
So from my dad to feel this strongly and my when I kind of sat there stunned my dad said look
I need more time. I want him to come on the men hunting the men's hunting trips
I want him to go fishing with us. I want him to
integrate himself into the family so that we can see what you see obviously
You know, there's something we're missing,
but if this is meant to be, if this is right,
if you two are good for each other,
you will be glad you waited.
You'll be glad you honored us.
We just, we know that it's hard to look past,
you know, what's going on right now,
and this is the worst thing to ever have to ask somebody,
but we don't know what else to do.
And we haven't been sleeping for days,
we haven't been eating, and I just kept saying,
how can you do this to me?
Like, what the hell?
Can you tell me what led up to this and why now?
And my mom said, honestly,
I guess a week or two beforehand,
I mean, really, really, shortly beforehand,
all these people, like my parents,
my sister, different people,
had felt weird things, but nobody wanted to be the one
to rock the boat because everybody else seemed, you know, supportive. So my mom says something to my sister and out of
nowhere my sister feels only goes, oh no, it makes me feel weird too, some random thing.
Well, I'll go, wait a second. And my mom said, well wait, if you feel that way, I wonder how your
dad feels. And so then my parents compared notes. And then they started to really panic and go,
oh no, none of us, you know, feel right.
Something's wrong, but we don't know what it is.
The version of your fiance that we have had ever since the misunderstanding, ever since
that night where they took me to dinner and not him.
He had not behaved like he had before.
So, pre that night, he would reach out to my parents often.
He would text my mom, I've never had a guy do this where he'd be like, you know, hey mama so and so I've been praying for you, I just want you to know you're an excellent
parent, you're doing great and I am reaping the benefits of your hard work, like your daughter is
amazing. My mom would just, wait, he would say how can I serve her better? What are her like wants and
desires? How does she function? Where are her weaknesses? Like how can I build her up? And he was your
mother like know her better than no one else. And so mom's just like I'm ready to give my girl to this man.
Well ever since that dinner what I didn't know is that he would never reach out.
She felt weird but she would text and be like hey miss you love you like can you get together
sometime?
Would never hear a word.
And she just was like I can't shake the feeling that the version of him that I'm getting
now is different.
I feel like he's running and she kept looking at me like I can't shake the feeling that the version of him that I'm getting now is different. I feel like he's running and she kept looking to me like, I can't shake the feeling that
he's running from us and he's hiding and we've been reaching out.
We've gone the extra mile and something's different.
So apparently we need more time to make this right.
And I kept going, what about this?
What about this?
What about this?
But time kept moving on and everything kept going so fast.
My mom wanted to support me.
She wanted to be happy for me.
But we have had other friends that their parents
have stayed silent and come to find out
their child ended up in a very abusive relationship.
And so we always said, don't let that happen.
So my mom was like, what do I do?
When do I say something?
So finally, that's why my mom was so desperate
to take me to lunch one day, but then realized, okay, I can't go to her. We tried that before.
She's all in. So that's when she went to my boss's wife to show her all of these things
and my boss's wife went, oh, I had seen a couple of things, but I just threw them out because
I figured since you guys approved that it was a one-off time that I got a weird feeling
about him and, you know, but now that I'm seeing that my weird feelings add up to your weird feelings
this is something we need to pay attention to and I thought oh my gosh I can
completely see why you all think that oh this is like such a sucky
situation so I'm telling Kimmy all of this and I I said can you talk to my
parents I mean that's how like desperate and innocent I was. I was like, really you please talk to my parents.
Talk to my boss and his wife, you know.
It's that he came in here from another state.
Nobody really knows him.
We don't know his friends.
We have nobody to, we can only go by what he says.
She met his family so that helped.
She met an aunt and an uncle
so that kind of helped his case
because of course they adore him. So she's going to see that side of him from where he was raised and everything.
But other than that, we met no other friends, nobody that he knew. So where were all these people?
So a lot of things we had to just go with because of the
the whole thing, the pace of the whole thing, which is why we got to the point where we got where we just, you just have to wait a
while.
It's your choice, but you need to know where we stand.
We think it's all too fast.
And who would have ever guessed that just by asking him to wait a while and him fighting
that, called everything to blow up?
When he asked her to postpone it, she, you know, kind of argued with him a little bit
about that and then looked over at me like, are you on board with this? I just looked at her and I said, I'm just sick Sarah. I said,
I'm really scared for you. I'm scared for your future. There's no harm in waiting other than
there's money loss, there's a little dignity maybe, but your family will understand
and we're talking the rest of your life. And if you have children with somebody and this
gut feeling really means something, you're in it for life. Whether you stay have children with somebody and this gut feeling really means something,
you're in it for life. Whether you stay married or you don't stay married, kids mean for
life. And so then she thought, okay, mom's on board too. This isn't just dad asking me
to do this. And so she was livid understandably. She says, all I'm going by is you guys is
gut. That's it. And of course, she's devastated. And we're thinking we better be right. And that's one of the last things she said before she went out the doors, you guys has got that's it. And of course she's devastated and we're thinking, we better be right.
And that's one of the last things she said
before she went out the doors, you guys better be right.
I left my parents house telling them,
I'm gonna do this, you better be right.
Because in the other half of my mind,
I'm thinking I can't have a wedding
where I've waited this long to have everybody come
and feel like it shouldn't be happening. I don't want my guests, you know, I don't want my own
family to be there and feel sick over it. I went back to sack and I went to our
house and I walk in the door and he had all of these treats laid out for me. He'd
spent a bunch of money on wine, like my favorite foods back to the food thing,
smoked salmon, chocolate, like so I might I'm just dying inside. When I come in
and there's music playing,
he's all of a sudden done all these fixits around the house.
And then I walk into the house, of course,
and the knife is even deeper when I hear the music.
I look around and I see everything,
and I'm literally like, my reality is fracturing around me.
And he comes out and he's got tools in one hand
and like, something the other and he's like,
hi baby, he's got like this super excited puppy dog
look on his face, and he looks at my face and then
everything goes still and he freezes and he goes what's going on and I'm like
can we sit down and he tries to take me into a hug and everything and then we
sit down and he's like what is it and then I told him and the air just went
out of the room and I said I had a conversation with my parents and I just kind
of led him into it kind of like I was and I was just like
Babe here are their concerns and I said I don't know what to do other than honor, you know
Because I can't can't please see my case like look at where I'm at
This is the worst thing. I don't want this. I want you
But I don't see how we can move forward without fixing this so I kind of came at it like you and I are in this together, you are not the problem.
My parents are not the problem.
We need clarification.
I love you so much.
I want them to see to you and I want our families to want to be at our wedding.
Don't you kind of thing.
Like be in this with me.
You're trying, you're thinking there's going to be peace reached.
Absolutely.
I'm 100% convinced. I'm just like, we've got to walk through some
health first. And I've got Kimmy texting me saying, it gets darkest right before
the sun rises, you know, stupid cliche stuff like that. Like, get through it baby.
I did, you can. Like, it's worth it. And so I'm like, we're going to do it.
So it's going to keep getting darker. And he once the reality hits him, he like,
he starts hyperventilating
and going, oh my god, oh my god, $8,000 honeymoon non-refundable. Oh my god, he's looking
around and I start like, is he saying this? He's saying this and he's putting his face
in his hand and he's looking around like a man with like we're facing each other.
I'm sitting on the couch and we're neat and neat. He's sitting on the out of and facing
me. I'm facing him. I'm holding my face in my hands just looking straight down because I can't face my world right now.
Yeah. I can't look at him. And I have never felt so like small and broken and just like I would really,
really rather die than be in my own body right now. And again, it's me asking this of him and he's going
we have to call the family and I'm thinking I had
done this to your family I had done this to you I've done this to everybody
who's booked tickets I've done this to you know all I mean thousands of
dollars the donations the gifts the registry gifts that have already been
coming in that are all throughout our house you know all this stuff and once
I mean he's just going you have to be on this phone call with
me when I call my parents and everything and I, even in the moment I thought, don't put
that on me, please don't put that on me, please rescue me out of this, like I can't tell
your parents, because I was already terrified of his parents' reactions, his mom was not
emotionally, always the same person, it depended on which day. So if you set her off, it was not going to be fun.
Once I finally broke, I was sobbing.
I have not cried like that probably since I was a kid.
He all the sudden goes, oh baby, it's going to be okay.
We're going to get through this together.
It's going to be okay.
And he comes and he sits with me on the couch.
He wraps me up.
And he holds me like a baby while I am weeping over all of this.
And he's just like, it's okay, I want you, I want this,
we're gonna be okay, I will fix this, I will make it happen.
And I'm just like, I'm so sorry that I put this on you,
that I've done this to you.
And then did not sleep that night.
Holy shit, at all.
And neither did he.
And Kimmy is, I think the next morning, texting me saying,
okay, like Brian and I did not sleep all night,
but you didn't,
no, in each communication with them.
No, I was up pretty much all night.
I think I, she might have texted me in the middle of the night
or something and I just said I can't,
like I'm, no, I'm not talking to you, right?
Pretty much something like that.
Basically, like Brian talked to your fiancee
and I know what's going on, or was she just like I sensed something.
No, Kimmy was like Brian had that she called him Bubba a lot. Which was a weird thing to me because he would in random conversation call people Bubba.
And I'm like, yeah. Yeah, he'd be like, it's not our Bubba, I was just the way it's sort of like as a joke, but or as a term of a deer being like, boba, but like when his dog would, you know, get grease on it,
I don't know, boba, come here, you know, kind of stuff like that. But Kimmy would
call him Bubba too, and I'm just like, ugh, ugh, like it just keeps getting
weirder, but she would say so, you know, Brian had to walk Bubba off a ledge
last night, like things weren't, and I was like a ledge. Of course, in my mind,
I'm thinking suicide heels, guns, like like this is he was in a dark place because this had happened him before
Apparently with his ex fiance the dad stepped in and said you cannot marry my daughter in his life shattered
And so he's reliving all this trauma again and even in the moment
I remember thinking don't put that don't do that don't manipulate me and make me feel like I can't repeat what someone else has done
Like that's not my problem right now is the problem. I just I told Kimmy
I said something like look I'm just I'm in a really really dark desperate place
Just pray that I cannot talk to you right now and I texted my roommate that I was close with and I knew was still home
It was Mother's Day. It was a Sunday morning. I wasn't sure if she was gonna head off to church,
but I'm sitting in I'm like in one of his oversized t-shirts. I just got out of bed
I'm sitting on the floor. I can barely stand and I texted and I said,
Are you home? Can you come in here? And she comes in my room and she sees me sitting on the floor
and she sits on the floor across from me and I said I have a question for you
And she said what and I said now is the time for you to be more honest
with me than you've ever been.
Do you have any red flags about my marriage?
Like, I know I've never asked you about this
and I'm sorry because she's been very involved
with helping me plan and everything and plan,
helped plan the engagement, the surprise, everything.
And I just said, is there something I'm missing?
Like, now is the time to speak.
And she just like, didn't know what to say. And she was like, oh, honestly, like, I
don't know. And she was kind of neutral. And she said that
mean, there have been, you know, some things. But I'm, I've
seen how happy he makes you. And I know you, you know,
decently well. And so I'll support you, kind of whatever you
want. And then our other roommate walks in. And she's like,
what's going on? She's a straight shooter. Like she will
tell it like it is the one that he would not give it to give the time of day two. So she comes in a little different lens.
And she's a no bullshit, not gonna buy it. Absolutely. She'll tell you what you don't want to hear.
If you're open to it kind of thing, but she's much more blunt. The roommate I'm closer to is very,
very gentle and very gracious and sometimes I mean she gets walked on and doesn't like
She should she should speak her mind a little more because she's got a lot of good things to say the other one will speak her mind
And that's part of what I love about her
And so the three of us together, you know, I'm in a really interesting dynamic because I'm kind of right in the middle
And so she sits down and I filled her in on what's going on and at this point my walls are down
I mean, I am the lowest I've ever been and And so she sits down and I filled her in on what's going on. And at this point, my walls are down.
I mean, I am the lowest I've ever been.
And they're like, who are you talking to?
Like what's the situation?
And my phone's going off and they can see it.
And I said, they're like, is that Kimmy?
And they said, yeah, they're like what she's saying.
And I'm like, she is saying, look, it's darkest
before the dawn kind of thing.
And she's begging me to tell her what's going on because I hadn't told her we postponed the wedding.
She just knew something was very wrong that Baba quote you know had to be
walked off a letter of tariff alleged last night and didn't sleep and
something's wrong and so Kimmy started pressuring me and saying you have to
tell me what's happening. Tell me what's wrong and I said and I was like look and
I would show them the texts. The texts would come in and it would say, okay, please don't tell me that this is a post-pollument
because we have, she said the wedding has to happen, we have tickets booked, we need to know. And I
went, I'm sorry, what? She goes, yeah, we were gonna surprise you. And I just, in the moment I thought,
I just had this moment of clarity where I was like, bullshit, you don't just tell me that now.
And I just, in the moment I thought, I just had this moment of clarity where I was like, bullshit, you don't just tell me that now.
And plus, I had a very limited wait, or guest list, you're just going to show up from London
at my wedding, wait, and tell me, like, I wouldn't have had to speak for you, but okay.
And she's like, you have to tell me what's going on, we have, we have Flight's Book, like,
Brian is looking into, like, redirecting, like, canceling the flights, if we can redirect
the money.
If this is a money thing, maybe we can cancel the flights
and give the money to you to pay some of the costs.
And I'm just like, I can't talk to you right now.
I just need to find clarity.
It might my other roommate, but I wasn't super close to.
She goes, Sarah, call her.
Talk to her.
Have you talked to her yet?
And I was like, no, I haven't.
So I was just like, hey, can we talk on the phone?
And she's like, I'm at dinner with Brian right now.
I'm sorry, I can't.
I'm like, I've never asked anything of you ever.
If you really, really love obviously you're obsessed
with my fiance and our relationship,
it seems like you are.
Can you just do this one thing for me?
And she was like, babe, I can't. I'm sorry.
And my roommate says, ask her, like, to send you a certain picture. I've never talked to her.
And my chest goes cold. Like this, just tight, I can't breathe. No, please God, no. You can't be
implying what I think you're implying that maybe I could never talk to her.
And she said, have you seen pictures?
And I said, yeah, they have sent me a few pictures, not many, like no more than four or five,
but they're the same people.
It's this blonde chick with this Middle Eastern guy and they have this really cute little
girl, but that's all I've seen.
I've seen a wedding photo.
I've seen a selfie of them somewhere together and I've seen a picture of
Kimmy on the beach with their little girl and they said call her
So I froze and then I hit the call button and it rang and rang
All the sudden it just said, you know this number that you're calling has not been set up for voicemail
Or you know cannot be reached right now is unavailable something bland like that or neutral and I was like oh
So my gosh deep breath and then Kimmy calls me back. You think you know me, you don't know me, wait a little.
You think you know me, you don't know me, wait a little.
