I feel like Christian probably wanted the show and public and really pushed Cleo into saying yes. She always looked so uncomfortable in front of the cameras where Christian was relaxed and seemed to really enjoy the experience. So her asking for privacy to me seems like regaining her comfort and voice.

We saw it in the tell all Christian spoke for her often and gaslit her. I think in every other relationship asking for privacy is a bit like “okay reality star…” But I’m Cleo’s case I support her request.
