Trashy Divorces

For Trashy Breakups this week, Alicia has the story of Australian actress Rebel Wilson, who has quite an adventure over the last few years. In 2019, she quietly began dating billionaire brewing heir Jacob Busch, who supported his girlfriend's health-related goals during the pandemic's isolation period. The relationship wasn't built to last in the end, but it was Rebel's next romance that prompted global scorn for her hometown newspaper, the Sydney Morning Herald.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?
