None of their fans are worried about why a grown ass man (53) is stuck like glue to a woman he knew as a minor. https://t.co/vzyeMww8dv pic.twitter.com/BolL2zzphA

So creepy but after what her mom made her do, its not surprising she thinks she needs to hang with him for his connections

Yet, some defended the malicious comments towards Sean, whether it was praising his personality or the broader relationship Danielle has with him and his family.

Because he’s a good guy. He advocates charity, has his own non profit foundation, overall a good reputation damage control for Danielle. Charity.. marathon.. now church. She looks eager to gain back public support. Charity and church is the oldest pr crisis trick in the book

Sean and his eldest daughter, who is around Danielle’s age, was there. They seem to be friends and been running together in Australia. pic.twitter.com/QCEHnTOxHl
