Bowe Bergdahl : American POW’s girlfriend found new love

The former girlfriend of freed US soldier Bowe Berghadl never gave up hope that he would one day be freed despite moving on with her own life and finding love with someone else.

Bowe Bergdahl Freed From Taliban After 5 Years in Captivity

Monica was just 19 when Bergdahl was captured by the Taliban. Her last Skype contact with him was in June 2009 right before he wandered off the base and was taken hostage.

However, Bergdahl was still able to get messages to his family which were sent by his captors.

In his final message, Allison Lee says he told her daughter not to wait for him.

“He said he wanted her to go with her life, and not feel like she had to wait. No one knew how long he would be held for,” Allison said. “Emotionally, it was very trying for her. She was 19 going on 20 at the time. It was a lot more than most people have to deal with.

“She’s learned a lot to be quiet about how she feels but she has always been very supportive of Bowe, and very anxious about him,” Allison told the Daily Mail.

Allison said her daughter was excited to hear the news of Bergdahl’s release but that it has also caused some confusion for her.

“She asked me, ‘What should I do now?’. She is a little confused what is going on. She hadn’t been briefed lately about his situation,” she said.

Facebook photos show that Monica has been in a relationship with Justin Forsdick since 2012.
