She was a babe. I know more than a handful of ladies of this certain age living in Highland Park and University Park (slum {8^) of the paired "Park Cities" deep within mo' greater Dallas). Status is critical. Stealing from NM at NORTH PARK was a faux pas. Tea at NM is a thing to do.

The pressure to remain as young as husband's mistresses while losing out in the on-going eye candy contest to their sexed up teenage daughters is overwhelming for many of these ex-debutants.

In some of these social circles, hundreds of thousand$ to million$/year from trust funds sustains the salary/bonus millions earned by husbands.

Some wives bring family money, some men, some both. I know some families who were to heavily into high tech stocks, the "local" American Airlines, before the near crash below $3, and real estate flips. Some women are now a bit short on their shopping budgets.

People act like people. Some are normal and well adjusted and some pop a screw loose. The unlucky get caught and posted on the www.

Our Ms. Brooke has some issues, now in public.

She probably won't be having coffee and shopping luncheons at North Park with her DCC and 500 Club neighbors.

Counseling and a bit of cosmetic surgery and she'll be back strong, with or without a paramour.
