The incident occurred in 2007, at the Clovelly Hotel in Sydney, when Candice was 22 and Williams was 21 and in the early stages of his NRL career. A member of the public filmed them together in the toilet cubicle, causing public shame and ridicule for Warner that has lasted over a decade.
Despite Candice and Williams expressing remorse over the scandal in the past, Candice is now set to release a tell-all memoir titled ‘Running Strong’, which goes into detail about the controversy.
During her recent interview with Sarah Harris, Candice broke down in tears while discussing the lasting impact of the toilet tryst scandal. Harris noted that the shame has been a “really heavy burden to carry” for all these years, to which Candice replied that the pain and hurt caused to her family runs deep. She couldn’t take the headlines or the disappointment of her parents, and it all became too much.

Pat, the brother of Candice, began checking in on her daily after the incident, and she felt that she needed to reach a certain point in order to move on. It’s clear that the toilet tryst scandal has had a lasting impact on Candice, causing her significant emotional pain and distress.
Despite the scandal, Candice has continued to move forward with her life, marrying David and starting a family. However, the pain caused by the incident has not gone away, and Candice’s upcoming memoir and interviews will likely shed new light on the lasting effects of public shaming and ridicule.
The incident serves as a reminder of the power of social media and the lasting impact that public scrutiny and humiliation can have on individuals, especially in the age of digital media. It also highlights the importance of empathy and understanding, as those who have been the subject of public shame and ridicule continue to grapple with the emotional aftermath for years to come.
