I have a copy of all three LOTR books in one volume, and it's actually substantially smaller than your average Sanderson-grade doorstopper.

I mean I realise I am being arbitrary, but if you think your epic fantasy book genuinely needs to be longer than Tolkein then sit the gently caress down who the gently caress are you.

But you see there's being a writer, and there's being in love with the idea of being a writer. And if you're the latter and can't be bothered to actually write, then planning down every last detail of the setting in excruciating detail is a great way to pass the time.

(Don't get me wrong, I'm 100% the latter)

I kept going down the rabbit hole. Tl;dr it sounds like he was in an open relationship with someone and then got involved with this woman. She claims he did what sounds like sociopath poo poo (and, reading between the lines, probably kink) to make her love him and then he cut her loose. According to her, after she went public with it, lots of other women came to her with the same story of being manipulated/abused the same way.

The account is so vague because he sicced lawyers on her to save his reputation. Using the law as a weapon because he can afford lawyers and she can't - truly the actions of a true socialist champion and egalitarian.
