Corrin continued, %u201CShe’s a speech therapist … and was amazing and helped me with my auditions when I was prepping for them. She would give me tips on the voice.

Corrin continued, %u201CPersonally, I try not to engage with it because I feel like it%u2019s a slippery slope and if I start worrying about who%u2019s seen it and what they think, it becomes stressful. But I sit comfortably in the knowledge that what we%u2019ve created is Peter%u2019s version of things. So hopefully, it%u2019s its own thing. But in a way, I suppose it can never be completely detached from the reality that it touches and that it%u2019s influenced by.%u201D
