Anyone who, like Julian Assange, has been fighting his extradition to America for years needs good lawyers – and a strong woman at his side. Luckily, the prisoner found both in Stella Assange.
Anyone who met Stella Assange in 2020 met a quiet, thoughtful woman. If you see her today at one of her many press conferences, in the flashlights in front of London’s Supreme Court or at the forefront of protest marches, it seems difficult to imagine. Julian Assange’s petite wife has become the charismatic face of the campaign for the 52-year-old’s release. In just four years, the soft-spoken woman has transformed into a fearless and clever fighter.
