It has been noted that a woman who alleges she was sexually abused for years by former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon wrote a gushing love letter to the former WWE CEO in which she declared the duo was “in love with a capital L” — and she now claims that McMahon coerced to do it via New York Post.
Janel Grant — whose lawsuit landed a day before the wrestling icon abruptly stepped down as executive chairman of WWE-parent TKO Group Holdings wrote a lengthy email to McMahon dated Dec. 24, 2021 in which she called him “my best friend, my love and my everything.”
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Grant revealed that on Dec. 21, three days before sending the letter, Grant texted McMahon that she had surgery on her pointer finger, saying “I think I’m tapping out today.”
It has come to light that in the alleged text exchange obtained by The Post, which was not included in Grant’s lawsuit but alleged as genuine by a spokesperson for Grant, McMahon responded, “Damn it. Sorry baby,” following it with two heart emojis.
“How will I write your letter?” Grant replied in the text thread. “I can type and read it…or try to write in a couple days,” Grant added. “I’m so sorry if I mess this up, I want you to have a nice letter :(“
Grant’s rep, who asked to remain unnamed, also stated that Grant had written love letters at McMahon’s request so many times that she resorted to padding them with existing material from pop culture, including a GQ interview with Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly published two months before Grant’s letter.
In the GQ piece, author Molly Lambert said of the celebs’ relationship: “The carnal component is clearly off the charts, but they can also be sweet and funny” — language that was lifted nearly word-for-word in Grant’s letter.
“Fox and MGK are in Love, with a capital L,” the story also states — yet another phrase lifted by Grant.
