"I regret learning to stay quiet when I should have spoken ... I regret that it took me as long as it did to understand what was actually happening."
She continued, "I think a lot of people have expected me to stay in the story that was written for me, 'the grateful young wife,' but I'm done living in that story. Yes, I regret it."
