15. I suspect there was money involved to get them sealed initially...

...but there is no way she could be legally obligated to fight against getting them unsealed and have to relinquish any money. You can't extend a gag order to people she doesn't even know. If someone else is able to reveal things about their divorce, its not on her. She didn't violate any agreements on her part. I kinda think they might have just had an ugly relationship in general toward the end and she doesn't want that coming out. And yea, its a shame because I suspect Donald was the one that made it ugly and the American people should know how ugly he is, considering his current position as GOP nominee. But I feel like those divorce records should stay private if both people in the divorce want them to.
