We also saw how these smart women, who have been thrust into the public eye, have had to put up with a load of shit. "Of course I receive tons of hate," Greta told us. "There are people who spend all their time trying to spread rumours and lies, and leave out information. They are treating Luisa very badly, making up rumours about her, and I think that’s absurd."</span><p style="margin: 0px 0px 30px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class=""><br class=""></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 30px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class="">"'No one can prepare you for all the hate you receive,' Luisa told us.
