For Willis, he wants to move past the incident as they work together, and for Dow to ‘retract everything.’ 

‘For me, I want her to retract everything,’ he said. ‘We work at the same establishment and I want us to be able to work and keep it professional and amicable.’

Willis also described their relationship as ‘toxic’ and that it is over, but he still cares for the assistant manager. 

‘Our relationship was toxic and it’s not there anymore,’ he said. ‘I still love her, but I also have to look out for myself.’
