Earlier this week, a personal matter I have been dealing with was made public with the intention to harass me and humiliate my family. These false accusations have led to the spread of misinformation, and I want to make it clear that I am not involved in any of the claims being made.
It has been deeply hurtful to see these false accusations and fabricated details shared online. I want to emphasize that I have always worked hard to build a positive and honest community with all of you, and I would never do anything to betray the trust we have built together.
My legal team is actively working to address the situation, stop the harassment, and ensure that the truth is heard. I am incredibly grateful for the support I have received from so many of you during this challenging time. Your understanding and encouragement mean the world to me.
I respectfully ask that you refrain from sharing or engaging with these false claims. Misinformation only causes harm, and we can all do better by focusing on the truth and supporting one another. I am confident that the truth will prevail, and I look forward to getting back to doing what I love."
