Part 9/15:
The segment then turns to the literary figure Elizabeth Gilbert, best known for Eat, Pray, Love. Gilbert’s recent public revelations about her near-murder of her partner and her history of manipulating and breaking into relationships evoke both shock and skepticism. Critics accuse her of fabricating her persona as a spiritual wellness guru while hiding darker truths: alleged obsession, inauthenticity, and potentially exploitative relationships.
A detailed recounting of Gilbert’s alleged past, coupled with media profiles, calls into question her integrity. The show emphasizes how the media tends to glamourize her, ignoring the darker side of her life and painting her instead as a glamorous figure who “came close to murder,” a storyline the hosts describe as sensationalized and misleading.
