The drama surrounding the latest season of "Love Is Blind" continues as fans are still questioning if love truly is blind, with Micah Lussier and Paul Peden being one of the couples at the front and center of the drama.
The two made it to the altar, but Peden said he could not commit to marrying Lussier in front of their friends and family members, leaving Lussier to run from the altar in tears. After the finale aired, many fans have been attacking Peden online, including an incident that allegedly showed Peden intentionally touching a bridesmaid’s backside as he exited a room after his wedding to Lussier. Peden addressed the rumors during the finale, to which he said the claims are outrageous and all he did was simply touch her back to try and let her know he was behind her and walking through.
Although the cast tried to clear up any unanswered questions or rumors circulating the Internet, it seems fans are still attacking members of the show on social media... and Micah Lussier has had enough!
Micah Lussier Asks Fans To Stop Attacking On Social Media
The 27-year-old has taken to Instagram to address some online bullying, but the post is being considered cryptic as many are unsure of what or who Lussier is referring to within the caption.
"Hi guys! I want to acknowledge that while there has been a lot of love and support, there has also been a lot of negativity on social media the last few weeks," she wrote. "And I feel I have to say this... please, just leave looks out of it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I want everyone to have a free space to speak their mind, but, a line has been crossed- and I am not the one suffering."
Although Lussier was not clear as to what she was talking about, one thing is clear - someone is hurting from online bullying - and it may have to do with a friend of hers or someone else she knows as she added, "I’ve received so many heartbreaking messages from people who have been negatively affected from hateful comments that they have seen on my (and other cast) posts. While I may have willingly thrown myself into the public eye, and can take the backlash- other people have not made that choice."
Is Micah Lusser Referring To Shelby?
The reality television star brought her friends onto the show, where many viewers began calling out Lusser's close friend, Shelby, for not being supportive and for not being a good friend -- so it is possible Lussier is referring to Shelby in her post, though that has not been confirmed.
Lussier continued to write in her social media post, "The impact of your words can be hurtful, especially to those who feel like they don’t fit in societies narrow definition of beauty. You may be talking to me, or other commenters, but you could easily be damaging an innocent persons self esteem. Don’t sink down to the level that you believe me to be at. You don’t know who you may be hurting. You don’t know who’s reading those words."
She concluded with, "Remember that opinions of other people don’t define who you are. You’re beautiful. Let’s celebrate our differences. They are what make us who we are."
