Cierra Ortega’s team addressed racist outpost before Love Island USA exit
Cierra OrtegaHer friends broke their silence on her resurfaced racist post just days before she left Love Island United States.
In the episode of the Peacock series on Sunday, July 6, the narrator Iain Stirling Revealed that Cierra “leads the villa due to personal circumstances” and left her partner Nic Vansteenberghe “Formal single.” This surprised some viewers, but the scandal was brewing until the days before Cierra left.
Hawkeye social media users caught Cierra’s past posts, which included offensive sluts, as season 7 is being filmed. As a result, her social media handlers and friends MJ Hedderman In the drama, “take a step back.”
“Hello everyone, I see your comments on people I love and care for. I want to make it clear that I will not be tolerant of racism, paranoia or hatred in any way or form, nor do I know of the recent screenshots until they are posted to them.
MJ continued: “I can’t speak for anyone except my own people, and can’t make any statements and decided to take a step back. Her family asked me to close the comments and avoid talking on her behalf. This is really difficult and I’m still dealing with everything.”
Cierra’s other friend at the same time Johnnie Olivia Similar statements about the dispute were issued.
“I’m sure many of you have noticed that I avoid talking about Love Island and stop supporting my friends publicly on the show. This is after the first time I saw a post involving racial slander,” she wrote via Instagram on Friday. “I like to support her during the show, but once I came across that post, I felt the need to take a step back.”
Johnny made it clear that she was moving away from Cierra, adding: “I don’t support or tolerate this language, never, never. Any form of racism is unacceptable. Unless you are Asian, you don’t decide that the word is offensive. No one should have a serious impact on that word or on the word.”
Several actors this season faced repainted posts after entering the villa. Islanders were quarantined during filming Love Island United States To keep them focused on finding the game, they didn’t stay in touch with the outside world until they officially left. That’s when they retrieve their phones and catch up on the public’s reaction to the show time.
Yulissa Escobar It was the first islander to evacuate from the villa earlier this season. Her departure comes after Yulissa’s clips used racial slander to be distributed online.
“I was called in front and then ran into one of the producers who asked me to take off the microphone,” she explained in Tiktok in July. “I think something serious happened. Honestly, I was scared. I thought something happened to the family members. They really didn’t tell me anything. They just said the videos on the internet surfaced and didn’t look very good. I really didn’t know what videos, what I was saying or what I did.”
She continued: “I didn’t give my phone back again. They were waiting for two episodes that I aired. I was actually losing my mind in the hotel room because I didn’t know what was going on. I just knew there was a video there. I got it. What I said, I shouldn’t say, but I wanted to say that.
Austin Shepard is another actor who apologized for his online post.
He wrote via his Instagram story on Saturday, July 5: “I want to take some time to resolve my recent repost, which is a crime for some of you.
Austin added: “I never intended to hurt or frustrate anyone. I value and respect all individuals and their views.”
Season 7 contestants Jeremiah Brown Recently revealed how islanders who are still filming usually understand someone’s surprise exit.
“They personally never told me anything. They never told us in the villa,” he said during the “Fast Moorman” show on Monday, June 30. “They said she left for personal reasons – I can say that. I later found out that it was because of anything that happened after I took back my phone.”
