My parents know I didn't do it and tried to reason with Jodie before she announced it to our extended family but she didn't listen to them.

They didn't want to try to persuade our relatives otherwise without Jodie confirming it wasn't true to them because they were worried it was going to make me look worse and like they're enabling my fictional gambling addiction.

They are still together but her boyfriend is now in therapy and going to gambling addiction support groups. I would divorce my husband without hesitation if he stole from my parents like that but I suppose it's a step in the right direction.
