Please don’t involve her. She was never interviewed nor she gave an official statement. Please stop spreading lies.”Pinty, like Divine, has been a familiar figure to followers of their respective children. But whereas Pinty hasn’t shied away from the limelight, frequently participating her daughter’s vlogs, Divine noticeably became less visible over the years, even as headlines contributed to her reputation of being fiercely protective of Geronimo.
