Well they had been drinking and it slipped out I guess. The issue that LI herself ran up all that debt and she lied to her boyfriend saying her stepdad opened up fraudulent credit cards in her name (shifting the blame onto him and avoiding accountability). This has created a rift now between if boyfriend and the ex stepdad. ETA and I wonder how the step-siblings will take this when they are adults. I have a feeling it will all come out one day.

You are right ThinkThrice she is lying about a lot to The Fool. She also told him she has her prestigious bachelors degree but owes money to the college so they won’t let her have it and at the same time claims she makes really good money. I know for a fact she dropped out long before ever even coming close to getting a degree. I don’t know how she’s going to keep up all these lies with The Fool but DH I think has actually started to see through her BS just a bit but it’s a start.

AG's DH would never be able to discern that LI is lying to him.   Much easier to blame ex-stepdad!

DH is angry at ex stepdad of course because LI could never lie, it’s always someone else to blame. He believes her but I think there’s a tiny bit of doubt. The Fool is so angry at stepdad that he declares if they get married ex stepdad isn’t invited to the wedding. Wonder what LI’s step sisters will think when their dad isn’t invited?
