My advice to anyone who is divorced and has children, it's best to lead a single life..Its not easy to have teenage step children in a second marriage unless there's an excellent understanding between everyone, which unfortunately, in majority of cases, is quite short-lived! 😢😢
These two never got to know each other without other people in the middle of this relationship. The daughter and his mother didn't help the situation. They were both very insecure and needed to work on that first before having a relationship. Having a baby is not a cure for a bad relationship.
I was thinking the same thing. He seemed very lazy and they went too fast with the relationship at the start 😢 When she took him back I thought she was making the biggest mistake of her life. I think the best friend had been manipulated by the husband as this has happened to me with my best friend but I didn't take the bit. He was also a deadbeat, very lazy and did nothing around the house. I told my best friend that she was already a single parent and that she didn't need him and she took my advice. The best friend should have never told her or convinced her to go back to her husband and saying things like do you love your husband? She should have seen it for what it was and said you were better off without him. Regardless, if you love him or not, we can do nights out so you don't fail as lonely 😢
Jodie’s friend was so unwise encouraging her to take Edgar back! Jodie clearly wasn’t a wise person, her marriage to Edgar clearly was toxic and their relationship should never have happened but it did. Once Jodie left Edgar the divorce should’ve gone through, no going back. Rebecca is for sure not a remotely nice person and clearly had no discipline, just walked over her mom, and the vocal fry is so annoying!
There it is again. The desire for absolute control over someone is so intense that if they fail to comply with your wishes, the individual believes they possess the authority to terminate your life.
What on earth did Jody see in Edgar? If the way they portray him in this video is correct he and his mother seem to have no nice qualities at all. Usually they have a best friend or sibling interviewed who will say some nice things about the killer but not this time.
They jump in and out of relationships to quickly. They have kids from nearly every relationship, whether they were married or not. This is what leave leave the children stranded emotionally and having to fend for themselves against all odds. Domestic abuse and partners being killed is almost inevitable.
My first husband and I also tried to give our marriage a second chance. You can't repair a broken bridge. And what makes it more difficult is step kids.
You can repair a broken bridge lol just need better foundation and sterdy material.. could be even better. I get your point though, I too can’t spin the block on a toxic relationship
I'm sorry to say but someone else should have talked about the daughter's behaviour I think she behaved worse than she's telling... The man is the devil himself and that daughter must have been horrible. All the same a beautiful life had to be lost because of a man who just couldn't walk away, RIP beautiful😔
It was such a sad ending as the mother and daughter were happy until Edger came along. He didn't want children and was lazy. What a mistake taking him back.
The daughter had no manners and was acting up ( like many teenagers would) but I get her hesitation and jealousy.. the grown ups moved too quick into the relationship, it’s bad enough just you but there was a child involved.
The daughter was doing a little too much . The problem is they never spoke about what the rules were going to be and if they did the mom never enforced them
What did she see in Edgar apartment from the physical. According to this video. He treated her daughter badly, he didn’t help around the house or with Tracey. He was controlling and lazy and he strangled her to death. I feel sorry for Rebecca. She must carry a lot of remorse not only for the way she acted with the sneaking out and lying but also she probably thinks if she hadn’t asked to come back and live with them her mum would still be alive. She was a child when all this happened and it must have been so hard for her. I wonder what sort of relationship she had with her father and step mother.
Strange that most comments here are blaming a child for behaving like a child rather than a man who killed his wife over control. No wonder these murders keep happening
You mean behaving like an American child because in other societies that is not a normal child’s behavior,to be extremely disrespectful and doing so much bad things at so young age.
Children can be challenging, however, as an adult you should find ways to make it work. You must remember that you are the mature one and you were a teenager once
The daughter was rude and the mother didn't discipline her daughter and the step daughter was disrespectful...the daughter was to be blamed also ..just my thought
She was just a kid. The dynamic might have been off from the beginning but he shouldn't have involved himself with single mum if he didn't want her plus the step kid
Right, let the "adult" (giant baby man) off the hook ? I disagree. All teens are difficult, if they're not and they're all goody goody - that is a really really bad sign.
I think the recalcitrant daughter had so much more to do with creating disharmony than this story reveals. I've seen how a disruptive brat can ruin a relationship and sow unhappiness and push people to breaking limits.
To give a second chance is like accepting his failures that was exhibited before. The daughter adds her stubbornness and disrespectful while the mother is easy to leave. Patience is gone and depression frustration blows beyond proportion.
These shows always start with "she was the life of the party...etc." Only after that do they mention "her child/children", single mom heroine). The story's most important starting point is "single mom", not "life of the party" which is how a protagonist became a single mom in the first place
she picked a man for his looks, he didn't eat to work, he argued with that horrible child and she thought let's have a baby, really........ Then she decides to have an affair, she kicks him out and instead of sorting things out with her daughter and moving on, she takes him back, sorry but she was selfish. This does not mean she deserved to die but, we have to except the truth.
Looking at dis story made me tink how adults acts like kids...fighting over who shud b more in control. At d end of it all...after d fact,is it even worth it takin a life??? Such nonsense. D step daughter shud hav remained wit her real dad...maybe tings wud hav worked dis time around without her being there. They were actually doin fine without her. She was d problem.
She was stronger as a single parent and she had two beautiful lovely daughters that were just going through the normal stages of life and she was trying her best . He seemed very lazy and they went too fast with the relationship at the start 😢 When she took him back I thought she was making the biggest mistake of her life. I think the best friend had been manipulated by the husband as this has happened to me with my best friend but I didn't take the bit.

Well the husband should be the head of the house. He set the rule that the daughter have to be home by 9 pm. He is not abusing her or what. The mother on the other hand also wants to be the head of the house and that caused her death
She actually is the reason her mother was killed! She wanted to live with the mother, live wild with no rules, disobey the mother, be rude to the stepfather and slowly build up a team with the mother against the stepfather. Rebecca was a spoilt brat and didn't believe in anything but her own happiness. She ruined the life of so many people, may she stop using an emotional knife in the future for the safety of those around her.
@@FN-ef4wb So now it's all the daughter's fault? She as just being a normal teenager; he wasn't working or helping around the house or with the children but hey, let's blame it on Rebecca!
I would NEVER get involved with anyone with children. I actually feel sorry for the husband. Maybe the story was NOT very well acted out - I did dislike the actress and thought she was a shrew - but ............
Sorry for a Man that dont provide but wanna Control a house and be the man. Oh, he's a hero, living in her house, because she have money and he have nothing.

And how many times do we see people having babies to fix a relationship? It's like a cure all.....not
He did noy pay rent in this house , could not even change his baby's diaper but wanted to control her daughter ,I wonder what she saw in him

She's the reason why her mother was murdered, so there's every need to blame her.

The daughter is difficult to be with. All was needed was balance.

The daughter is partly to be blamed for the disunity in the family.. rude, childish and no respect whatsoever.
Wait. chores was a "crazy condition"…?
Ok, we know that the case ends in death and we have two experts on the show saying that the see problems in the relationship, seriously?
Serioulsy, I couldn't change a diaper neither. The smell and sight of it would make me gag.
The daughter was rude and the mother didn't discipline her daughter and the step daughter was disrespectful...the daughter was to be blamed also ..just my thought
How rude! She was a kid and Edgar had NO interest in any kids. He is the only one responsible for his wife's death.
She was just a kid. The dynamic might have been off from the beginning but he shouldn't have involved himself with single mum if he didn't want her plus the step kid
How is the daughter rude....she was just a child ..just under 4 yrs of age ..🤦🏽♂️
And? Parents discipline their kids at age of 4 onwards so they be respectful and behave. You're parent clearly didn't by your comment
Right, let the "adult" (giant baby man) off the hook ? I disagree. All teens are difficult, if they're not and they're all goody goody - that is a really really bad sign.

Stacy and Brian could see this was going to be a disaster and sure enough, didn't give Jodie or Edgar their professional advice
The husband was his wife's killer. How sad 😢

The total irony that his criminal brother who he enables all the time, is the very one who found him in time for him to face justice.
She messed with his head and emotions.she didn't really want him back .
Friends influenced his return and. No it wasn't premeditated!
Rebecca is to be blamed for her mother's death.
WHAT ?

Really? Maybe the mum should not move in with Edgar so quick?
A man who doesn't want to take care of his family and doesn't do anything in the house is not a husband .
So sad especially for Rebecca and her little sister 😢❤
She was stronger as a single parent and she had two beautiful lovely daughters that were just going through the normal stages of life and she was trying her best .
He seemed very lazy and they went too fast with the relationship at the start 😢
When she took him back I thought she was making the biggest mistake of her life. I think the best friend had been manipulated by the husband as this has happened to me with my best friend but I didn't take the bit.
He was also a deadbeat, very lazy and did nothing around the house. I told my best friend that she was already a single parent and that she didn't need him and she took my advice.
The best friend should have never told her or convinced her to go back to her husband and saying things like do you love your husband? She should have seen it for what it was and said you were better off without him. Regardless, if you love him or not, we can do nights out so you don't feel as lonely 😢 she would still be alive today 😢
Well the husband should be the head of the house. He set the rule that the daughter have to be home by 9 pm. He is not abusing her or what. The mother on the other hand also wants to be the head of the house and that caused her death
Who cares where you’re watching from. It’s an abnormal situation where a person lost their life by some misfit control freak
Her daughter is to blame for her death as well
Ok so basically the daughter pushed someone to anger because she sounded like the cause of every thing tbh
An adult male Control by a teenager?
He dont work, he dont provide, he's less than a Man.
jodis daughter ruined mother's life ...she is mean disscosting little bom
So she was rude to the stepfather who was there in her life.
Very rude and disrespectful...and she Speak so proudly of it
She actually is the reason her mother was killed!
