And now his Patreon donations are going towards legal fees.
Where does it end?

Yup. Or it could be a dude.
I think it is. And I think that's what he's referring to as "messed up sexually". If that's the case he needn't be ashamed of it and merely should talk to his wife about it. And that's it.
At least, I hope that's it and not "something" worse. Anyone who's asked him to confirm or deny on Twitter has ended up blocked.

lloyd's twitter statement this morning states:.

today photos are being circulated that djana disclosed privately to someone she assumed to be a trusted friend.

i want to make it clear that the woman in the photos is in her 20s and not a sex worker.

I’ve had them for a few days.
I was just told not to share them.
I think that's wise. Who knows what the legal consequences would be? Although I'm sure they'll pop up online somewhere.

Lloyd Evans is a train wreck.

i don't know if someone has already posted this, but lloyd has put up a video talking about his hooking up with hookers.

personally that does not bother me but the way he is handling it is such a god damn train wreck.

this guy is insane..

I am one who can seperate the art from the artist. I like a lot of Micheal Jackson's music. The guy had a lot of talent. But he was IMO a child molester. He was a mentally ill person with lot of other issues and should have went to jail. But that does not mean his art was bad. The same with Evans, he did a lot of good work in exposing the cult. But his ego keeps getting in the way. I am sorry to see this happen only because the cult can hold him up and say see what apostates are rally like?
Im with you there. Admire the work, not the person. What they produced, not them themselves.

Over the past few days my feelings about all this have changed. I'm seeing more and more of what people have been saying about him. As my first comment in this thread stated, I dont have an issue with sex work or sex workers (there's a whole growing debate about freedom of women to do this safely if they wish to etc but that's for another thread perhaps) and I dont care about his personal life. My issue now is his complete lack of acceptance, personal responsibility and - dare I say - empathy for his wife and kids.

Hello all
- I’m briefly breaking my social media hiatus to say a few things that some may need to hear:
  
  Not gonna copy the whole thing, obviously, but a few points that jump to me are:
  
  Not once in that statement has he expressed remorse to his wife and kids.
  Not once in that statement has he expressed remorse for misappropriation of funds.
  He's running a poll about whether to keep his video up but says he can veto it anyway (whats the point?). Does it bring in more donations or what?
  
  Look, I dont judge anyone for sleeping with whoever and I make sure I dont weigh in on other people's relationship issues. Non of my business.However, this bit:
  
  (5) I would like to reiterate that as a professional activist I get to spend my wages as I please. My patrons know that I churn considerable money into my channel. It is due to their generous support that I have been able to hire a video editor, build a studio, travel to investigate stories and invest in the best equipment. I simply shouldn’t be asked to account for how I spend my personal funds. If that had ever been the case, I would never have used Patreon to begin with.
  
  The issue here is the money he's spending on prostitutes comes from his Patreon donors. Money which they were told was to make his videos and travel to do interviews and research. If it wasn't his sole income I could give him a bit of leeway. Guys working in garages, offices and bricklayers are free to spend their hard earned money how they please, sure. They get paid to lay bricks, fix cars and file papers. And yes, some will spend it on prozzys. Their wages, their choice. It would be very different if the brick layer took money from his employer to buy cement and spent in on a hooker though wouldn't it? In fact, it would get him sacked. And that, as far as I'm concerned is whats happened here.
  
  The only decent thing he can do about this is step down. Get off YouTube and Twitter. Dissappear. It's time for someone else to take the reign. And lets hope for a consortium under one YouTube channel rather than one person. Any spending of donations should be made public on a website.

Lloyd Evans says that the video wasn't one he wanted to make because of 'meh, privacy!'
He then makes a video about that very topic ... which lasts 1 hour and 39 minutes.
Narcissist.
Yh that was a head-scratcher for me. If he's adamant that its no ones business why make a YouTube video about it at all?It was like watching the Prince Andrew interview - cringe!!
