Her former partner sought to isolate her and eroded her self-worth, leaving her feeling frightened and walking on eggshells.
Recognizing the danger, Lara eventually left the relationship and dedicated herself to understanding healthy dynamics. She has since built a loving marriage with Lewis Caine, and they live with their son in Ashford, Kent. Lara now channels her past experiences into her business, Lara Lee Coaching, empowering other women to overcome similar struggles.

Experts emphasize the need for increased government action to prevent such abuse, support victims, and encourage reporting, underscoring the clear link between coercive control and severe harm, including homicide.
