I don't think any of us can make draw any conclusions without complete knowledge of their long-term past relationship and this recent revelation. We can't know whether this is just a drunken, crazed moment for them both, or whether there more to it.
Maybe the woman is suffering from "Stockholm Syndrome." It's also possible that she's just someone for whom this wasn't a big deal. Perhaps they beat on each other for awhile then enjoy the "makeup sex" that ensues. I know that sounds crazy, but there are all different types of people in this world. It's hard to judge people's lives when I don't walk in their shoes in circumstances like these. As odd as it seems, the fiance apparently got over the event. Like has been expressed previous on this forum, I just hate to know that their lives have been destroyed when, apparently, they had gotten past the incident and moved on. Now the video shows up and all hell breaks loose for them. What they've built together since now is in ruins. TMZ should be held liable for using this video for their own enrichment, without regard for the consequences concerning the lives TMZ, themselves, abuse for their own gain. It's just a difficult situation to understand and even more difficult to discuss from the outside looking in.
