    should read: Brenton has lived in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne (Vic) since 2004, having left Adelaide (SA) prior to that, due to getting his also full time ministry girlfriend pregnant outside of marriage, and to escape the shame and not have to face the hypocrisy of his public declarations vs his contrasting disbelief in everything he said publicly to lead him to live a life however he wanted. Yet he couldn’t hide it when it became embarrassingly obvious thus he decided to leave the state and tried to cover up his past.
