Paige's father Ricky Knight wrote the following on his Facebook page regarding the private photos/videos that were recently leaked online: my last say on the scandal surrounding my daughter I have just spoken to her over facebook and I am worried for her mental health or worse ffs world get a grip she has not killed anyone robbed anyone she was having sex in a private situation between consulting adults and then has been betrayed by some low lifes as her dad I urge people to back off as I say I am very worried for her it will be no good backing her when its too late like many other celebrities who have left us." Paige's mother also commented with the following: "I cannot lose my little girl!! The whole family has taken so much shit, being blasted from all angles. But none of this is worth it. There is a broken soul here. I am on the verge of breaking over this and I cannot deal with anymore. We are crushed. I really don't know how much more I can take, well done to those that thought this was a great idea, well done to those tagging us in pics and videos. You have done what you wanted to do let's hope to God you don't take from me one of my most treasured gifts." Paige's mother also added the following comment on Twitter: Sat with my husband, he is sobbing, he can't even speak. I'm losing everything I love, the business we love will kill us it seems This whole situation is incredibly f***ed up. The one massive thing that can redeem it, is if WWE come out and publicly support her, and I really hope they do.

I can't begin to imagine the situation this woman, as well as the countless others who got hacked, and their families and friends - I can't imagine how horrible it must be, I'm not trying to downplay that here..

Hey guys, I don't know why, but I feel compelled to post this and if it comes across wrong, then I truly apologize. I'm only trying to add a little perspective. But, luckily; and it speaks to the character of many of the posters on this board, most of us seem to agree on this. Many posters keep saying things like we have to remember these people are victims of a crime. This statement is so accurate. In my "biznizz," I deal with a lot of victims of crimes, usually right after said crime occurs. Unfortunately, "private" photos get leaked these days... a lot. Usually what I deal with is some well-meaning, truly wonderful young teenage girl who sent pictures to a boyfriend and he's now being a douche and showing his friends or posting them online. Ok, not the same thing, but similar. These victims not only have to deal with the fact that, yes they are the victim of a crime, but the damage that is done to these people is incredible. There's a sense of violation, mistrust in just about everything, humiliation, depression and, in many cases, it affects their future relationships too. I honestly feel very bad for Paige (who really strikes me as a young lady who tends to get caught up in the moment a lot) and, of course the guys involved too. I'm not saying don't look at them. Even for me, the feeling of curiosity has been overwhelming at times. The thing that is really maddening in my opinion is the way people have been reacting on Twitter by sending these pics to, not only Paige and the guys, but Paige's family too. How disgraceful can these people really be, ya know? There's a reason why a lot of people want these sorts of leaks to be treated like sexual assaults. Even though there's no physical violation, the mental/emotional violations and psychological trauma inflicted are very similar. It still baffles me that there aren't stronger penalties, or in some states, any sort of real penalties, for revenge porn or these sorts of leaks. The law really lags behind technology and unfortunately, people have suffered and will continue to suffer until it does.

She's their employee who is the victim of a very serious crime and invasion of privacy, which is consequently causing her and her family a shit ton of harassment and vitriol from all corners of the internet. That's all that needs to be publicly acknowledged by them here, why would they want or even need to bring up the belt?

So this is what actually alarms the family.
Not the drugs abuse ,the horrible behavior or the destructive relationship of their daughter.
This.

Human being > Belt Even from a business sense, supporting her would look better on them.

I stand by what I said months ago. WWE should cut their losses on Paige. She's not worth the hassle, even before all this shit hit the fan. I'm amazed they've decided to get involved in a movie about her.

They've gone on record already as saying that didn't want Paige to have anything to do with someone like Del Rio. Besides, she's 23, and is still quite immature. Having her parents tell her not to do something isn't gonna stop her. Hell, it might drive her further away.

So, because they publicly spoke on this, you think the other stuff didn't alarm them? Not everything needs public decree. This specific situation, it appears, does. But just because they didn't publicly say anything before doesn't mean they weren't alarmed.

I'm not denying that, I agree with you that she definitely needs help - what I'm asking is, how do they do this publicly? What initiative could they spearhead to make this any less horrible for Paige?

So this is what actually alarms the family. Not the drugs abuse ,the horrible behavior or the destructive relationship of their daughter. This. because a person with a substance abuse problem will constantly deny either the use or the size of the problem and wont accept offers of help. i don't think its actually been confirmed that's what got her the two wellness failures. she is in her early-mid twenties and on another continant, so the hope she will grow out of it or they assume the stories of horrible behaviour is blown out of proportion (and if questioned that is most likely the reply.) or is made up to get clicks. the destructive relationship will answered with "but I love him." "he'll be different this time." "I can change him" "he's not really like that" it's not an easy thing to blame the family for not closing ranks around her sooner or quicker.

It sucks for Paige, and I'm trying to be as sympathetic as I can be, but in this day an age, if you're sending nudes or videos to someone or it's saved on the cloud, you're putting yourself at risk for something like this to happen. I'm not blaming Paige, it's not her fault...but don't hit send?
Second, and I may be way wrong about this...I don't think it's the fact it's the videos/photos per se...I think what sent the family and maybe Paige over the edge is the fact that she's with two other guys in one video. Or she's with one guy and the other is filming. That, IMO, changes the perception of someone moreso than having just a sex tape. That and the one with the NXT belt. That's next level shit.

They seriously need to make the penalties for something like this so harsh that someone at least thinks twice about posting private stuff online. I think the guy who filmed Erin Andrews got like 3 years in prison. Make it 10 or 15 and then see if these violations stop. I think the person who did the big release in 2014 got locked up for a lengthy period.

Erin Andrews' video wasn't sex related, so it was easy for networks to back her. With Paige, she was getting a "shot to the face" (sorry don't know a way to say that PC) and on WWE property. It's a lot harder for WWE to show support there because of the optics involved. If HHH was sincere about his "what if my daughter Google'd her?" line, then Paige's situation isn't exactly something the WWE can easily support.
Hell, they fired Hogan when he went through the same thing. Granted he said racist things on his video but it was still illegally done and he was equally a victim of a crime. I don't see the WWE getting anywhere near this. Whether they should or not is up to the beholder but I don't see them doing it. If she was video taped unknowingly, and it was less graphic in nature, then maybe.

I'm amazed they've decided to get involved in a movie about her. problem now is if she does anything like attempt suicide it's still on their watch as she's still under contract, they terminate her contract it could be the final straw that pushes her over the edge into god knows what. stress can make people do strange/unexpected things. a death or full psychotic breakdown from paige would be a bigger p.r. blackeye to the company than what has leaked so far. best thing wwe can do is tell her to lie low for a while for the entire thing to become yesterdays news and offer to pay for any therapy/help she needs if she does indeed need it.

Never really think about how this affects people and their family, sad to hear Paige is taking it so hard.

I pray that this is the end of it cause holy crap if the Stephanie or Taker rumours are true....that could be bad. Especially if Steph's aren't with/to HHH. That said while I do feel the utmost sympathy for the people affected by this I can't pretend to understand the naked selfie/sextape thing, unless like, it's I dunno a long distance relationship and those sorts of message are basically the closest you can get at the time. I mean if you gotta do that then okay to each their own but with how open the internet is it just seems a bad idea, especially to not even like, I dunno, hide/cover your face or something as at least then that shit can't be shared. I also don't get not deleting that stuff after a relationship ends- nevermind the one that got away or whatever, if that relationship's over it's about respecting the other person in it's privacy as much as anything. Just odd all round to me, much as I feel bad for everyone caught up in it. Those messages by the Knight family are seriously scary and I hope Paige is okay. So this is what actually alarms the family. Not the drugs abuse ,the horrible behavior or the destructive relationship of their daughter. This. At the end of the day this is a violation of someone's sexual wellbeing and privacy, no it isn't a sexual assault or rape but it ain't just some awkward wardrobe malfunction either. It's damaging as hell and I'm not surprised that they've been quick to react to this.

Has it came out she was/is actually abusing drugs? Weren't her wellness violations said to be kind of bullshit? I mean, this is pretty bad, and if Paige is talking suicide talk(which is what it seems her parents are alluding to), I imagine that is pretty alarming.
