Chris Watts' parents say they live with tragedy of losing grandkids 'every day'
10/8/2020
Ronnie and Cindy Watts, who say they will always love their murderer son despite his horrendous crimes, claim the 35-year-old killer knows "nothing" about
the new program, after reports he is feeling "shame" over it being aired.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Cindy, 64, said: "Chris doesn't know anything about the documentary, we told him nothing about it.
"People come up with all these narratives. None of it is true. I'm living it, and I have been living it every single day for two years.
"It's nothing he hasn't lived through, he saw it, they didn't even show all the conversations that Christopher had with his dad, they didn't show anything, there was so much left out.

"Ronnie and I watched it on Saturday night. I was shocked to see videos that I thought were private of Shanann and the kids, showing me on the slip and slide in the backyard.
[..]
Ronnie, 63, added: "He has not been able to watch it [the documentary], he was never told about it or asked about it.
"It was about typical of what I thought it would be, I wasn't shocked by any of it really.
"They asked if we wanted to see it before it was released, which I declined to, [but] I wanted to see what the narrative was going to be.
"He's taking it one day at a time, just like we are. We still love our son no matter what and we miss our grand babies. We're trying to move forward but it's a very hard task."

"He has moved into general population and has a job now, but I can't talk about that any further," Ronnie added.
His former confidante, Cheryln Cadle, a true crime author who is releasing a new book, The Murders of Christopher Watts, after
writing to him and visiting him in prison, has also watched the program.

Cheryln last spoke to Watts late last year and admits their conversation "wasn't the friendliest" after a communication breakdown, and she still has dreams about being face-to-face with the murderer.
"By that time I was just kind of sick of his stunts, trying to control the narrative," she told The Sun.
