Paulina Gretzky: In Her Own Words
On the rumour at the Wayne shut down her Twitter account: "About a year ago…it was November and I remember the day so perfectly. I was with my brother and we were going to see a movie and I was going through a little bit of a break up and I was upset about it. And I told him, I just kind of want to disappear. And it was around the holidays, and I thought I want to get off my phone and get away from social networking, so he said why don’t you just turn it all off and I thought, you’re right. It was a sigh of relief—to get away from the internet and to get away from people knowing what I was doing. Then we were all sitting around the living room and my dad made a joke and said: I wonder who is going to Tweeter this first? He doesn’t even know how to say tweet. And my brother told him I had turned off my account. It had nothing to do with my dad telling me what to do. So, my dad asking me to turn it off—that is absolute BS. I haven’t talked about this at all. Nobody’s heard this story."
