"We were friends at first and then kind of fell in love. It was really fiery, like too fiery. We brought out the best of each other and then also the darkest parts of each other. Our lives were both forever changed," she expressed. "I'm so happy that he found sobriety after that relationship. I was able to guide him to AA and he was there for the rest of his life and sober and proud."

Continuing to personally address the individuals who killed Wactor, Farrell snubbed, "I know the job market’s hard but we’re all in it together. You don’t have to steal — especially take a life over it."
