Jessica Mulroney arrives for the baby shower for Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, at the Mark Hotel Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2019, in New York. TORONTO -- Bell Media pulled Jessica Mulroney's reality series "I Do, Redo" off the air Thursday after the celebrity stylist was accused by Sasha Exeter of threatening the Toronto lifestyle influencer's career and trying to "silence a Black woman" during the anti-Black racism movement.
"That's a threat to my livelihood -- and for her to threaten me, a single mom, a single Black mom, during a racial pandemic blows my mind," said Exeter, who used to be an acquaintance of Mulroney's. "It's absolutely unbelievable."Thursday saying it had removed Mulroney's show, which recently launched its first season, from all of its platforms.
In a post on her Instagram story Thursday, Mulroney said she respected CTV's decision and has decided to step away from her professional engagements at this time to reflect, learn and focus on her family. Exeter said Thursday on Instagram that Mulroney threatened her with a lawsuit in reaction to her publicly revealing their dispute.
She said she was wrong to take Exeter's initial call-out personally and she "did not intend in any way to jeopardize her livelihood."step "back from social media in the coming days" to reflect and give her "microphone to Black voices" by having them take over her account. "Listen, I am by no means calling Jess a racist but what I will say is this: She is very well aware of her wealth, her perceived power and privilege because of the colour of her skin," Exeter said in her Instagram post Wednesday.
A lot of news sites are referring to Jessica Mulroney as Meghan Markle's BFF, but not a pip about her being Brian Mulroney's daughter in law. Somehow another black woman is dragged into it, but not the old, powerful white man. Any thoughts CTV etalkCTV TheSocialCTV ?
Mulroney does not seem privileged. She had a career destroyed over a misdemeanor.
Your Morning barely address it this morning which was funny and I'm sure The Social might be on a rerun today so that the ladies wont be forced to address it JessicaMulroney
Sorry who is she what program she had, for me it's like ok don't care.
She’s so hot
So let me understand this. If an influencer is white you can be critical of her unfair attacks. But if she’s black, not so much? That sounds racist to me.
With a background like that she’s def an entitled little beeyatch.
Bad enough that Ben oozes of privilege, don't need a double team of 'out of touch' wealthy people. Why does BellMedia /CTV hire these twisted Mulroneys?
And the Bell censor purge continues.
Isn’t she and Meghan Markle best friends? Both seem privileged in different ways. CTV cancelled it probably because of its low ratings.
GOOD!
Did anyone even watch that show?
I love how Bell Media-owned outlets make the headline “dispute with influencer”. It wasn’t a fuckin dispute! jessicamulroney threatened, repeat threatened, to destroy the livelihood of a black woman.
A nother librail eating there own
Thank God. Really tired of the nepotism
And so it should be pulled
GLOBALIST political bullshit at work agian ...
What the fuck is a racial pandemic
She blocked me after my critical review of her show. So I am in tears.
Battle of the virtue signalers.
So, some chick got into a fight with another chick, and because these chicks have different skin colour it’s automatically a racist incident? 2020 just keeps getting weirder and weirder.
Right decision 👏🏾 Good to see reporting on it instead of covering the whole racist drama coz of Mulroney name
Best news of the day!!
She’s “known for being friends with the Duchess of Sussex” haha. Byeee.
She wasn't a leftist.
Bell Media? That would be you, the Liberal organized crime family 😂 Welcome to cannibalism you irresponsible, fraudulent media jackazzes. You stoke the flames of these woke terrorists day in and day out, did you really think you'd get spared?
Bye 🗑
