Walters asked Stiviano to describe their relationship, to which Stiviano replied that she’s Sterling’s “right-hand arm man. I’m Mr. Sterling’s everything: I’m his confidant, his best friend, his silly rabbit.” Whatever that is.
Stiviano said that she protected Sterling in real estate, business and board meetings and that she became a part of “Mr. Sterling’s team.” She said that she became someone who took care of him and watched everything he said and did and that people “did not like that.”
