It would be really interesting to see the messages in the correct order -
In the fifty shades ones, it looks like both are flirting with one another and it's equal
He then starts asking her for photos and that seems to be the point she gets uncomfortable? However these messages are earlier in the folder.
There's then a couple which read like they are right at the end, as she's explicitly telling him to stop
If I was GH I'd be leaving him as to me it's cheating, id also be wondering how much more went on, as it comes up about the hotels and one of them says not LA(?) as Geri will be there. So what happened at the races she wasn't there?
Why does he suddenly want her to stay in different hotels to him? Surely as his PA, she's there to assist him so it wouldn't be practical for her to stay elsewhere, you'd expect her to be in the same hotel and wouldn't think anything of it.
The WFH exchange is weird - as she said he hates when people do that, yet he's almost pressing her to do so - is it because he doesn't want her in the office and potentially telling people? How is she supposed to type up minutes (are they confidential?) on her home computer if her laptop is in the office? Unless it's linked to their storage, but if it was why would that have come up? Also asking her to delete the messages, almost insistently
Also does this show the exchanges from both phones? It mentions she has a work phone, are these just the messages from her personal one? As there's messages about work on there too.
I think the damming thing in terms of work, is the fact he continues to ask her for photos, after she's said no once or twice. Maybe once after the 50 shades where she's flirting with him (not appropriate when you have a wife imo) because he could have thought it was mutual, however he then brings it up on multiple occasions after she's said no. He should have realised she was uncomfortable with it and he'd gone too far
Also does it imply he picks out what she wears? One of the messages seems to suggest she's letting him look through her suitcase? Also the photo of her from behind in the skirt is completely inappropriate, unless we can't see the full photo and she's doing something work related, e.g. meeting someone and shaking their hand, but otherwise it's completely inappropriate to have a photo of your employee's arse that you've clearly taken. I'm female and would be straight to HR if one of my male bosses did that (not that anyone would want to!)
I think they'll go down the loss of reputation route, he's in a very public role so it'll potentially get to the point they need to be seen to be doing something about it. They'll probably claim it's by mutual consent.
It'll be interesting to see if any sky journalists ask him anything about it, as he's often featured. I reckon there's a pretty heavy embargo in place however!
Surely a simple way of checking if the messages are genuine would be to see if the dates and times match - check his diary to see if the meetings/race weekends that are referred to match?
