The standard quoted, among other things, from a cease and desist declaration, according to which Schilling is no longer allowed to make statements about a friend’s relationship problems. “After weeks of research and conversations with around fifty people, it can be determined that Schilling angered or hurt many people and even brought some into difficulties that threatened their existence,” reported The standard. Regarding the cease-and-desist declaration, Schilling said that she had acted out of “honest concern for a friend” and wanted to use this settlement to get the matter out of the way.
“Problematic relationship to truth”
The allegations have nothing to do with her politics, said the 23-year-old. “Actually, my character is being questioned.” But she won’t let that throw her off her game. “I hope it’s acceptable for my private life to still be private.”
