Hudson Williams isn’t pulling any punches when it comes to addressing certain segments of his show’s fanbase.
The star of Heated Rivalry recently took a stand against some fans’ inappropriate conduct. He voiced his concerns about behavior he deems unacceptable.
“You can’t call yourself a fan if you’re spreading racist, homophobic, biphobic, misogynistic, ageist, ableist, parasocial, or bigoted comments of any kind,” Hudson expressed in a social media post on March 9. “None of us need your hateful ‘love.'” His strong words were shared via Instagram Stories, a platform frequently used by celebrities to connect with their followers.
Emphasizing unity, Hudson continued, “We all respect, support, and love each other and are on the same side. If you can’t accept that, get out of here.”
In solidarity, his co-star, François Arnaud, echoed Hudson’s sentiments. He reposted the same message to his own Instagram Stories, showing a united front against such negativity.
Since breaking out in the Crave and HBO Max series, Hudson—who confirmed his relationship with his longtime girlfriend on Valentine’s Day—has been surprised by the reactions he’s gotten about his life offscreen.
“I didn’t think there would be as many disrespectful people as there are,” he shared with Wonderland in January. “And vice versa, I didn’t think there would be as many respectful people as there are. I thought everyone would just be screaming, nice or kind of like, ‘Oh my God.’”
