That is categorically untrue, though. He's repeatedly denied any abuse even though he's been caught on tape admitting to assulting her (and his friend, who was caught admitting he hit her in messages, tried to say they were doctored and then changed his version when found apparently genuine). He's also repeatedly accused her of falsifying pictures without trying to prove it with data (the metadata seems geniune and the accusation has for the moment refused an informatic expert that could say if they were faked or not). His team has also used tactics like ****-shamming (arguing things like cheating without solid proof when it really has nothing to do with the case) and are not above exaggerating to sell their version to the public (I remember when they explained they had 73 videos, a rather high number, that proved their version, when they appearently don't show much and let's to forget they tried to pass an edited video of a reality show as a piece of evidence).
As an abused man, he's got the right to expose her abuse and call her out on her playing the victim (and sue her for abuse), kudos on showing those audios. But he's now the one playing the victim card also and misleading the public, literally making the situation worse (like come on, suing the Sun I agree because wife-beater is just too much and not a term that applies to this situation, but suing her for libel for an article in which she doesn't even mention him, when it's obvious there was both physical and psychological abuse going on both parts is as frivoulous as writing that article while ignoring your part in the first place). Neither accept their part in their toxic realtionship and they use the same tactics, so neither are "respectable adults" and the consequences should be the same for both, at least as far as I'm concerned.
