Reports based on a new interview claim that Amanda McMahon, who says she had an affair with Chris Watts, gives an account of how she came to believe her partner was a killer. According to the excerpts published by two outlets with similar wording, McMahon says she initially thought Watts was a decent man she met through Tinder, but later learned more about who he was. The articles describe her account as a “part two” of an interview, and say she discusses her “nightmare” as the relationship unfolded.

The coverage also states that McMahon alleges Watts showed her disturbing material and that she comes to view acts connected to him as harmful. The articles include language that characterizes her experience as graphic, and they quote statements attributed to her expressing regret and dislike for things she says she permitted. The reporting does not provide additional independent verification within the provided summaries, focusing instead on McMahon’s claims as presented in the interview.
