Courtney Stodden Calls Chrissy Teigen Out As a ‘Hypocrite’ for Leaving Twitter Over Bullying
Okay. She has the right to leave Twitter, but Courtney Stodden thinks the fact that Teigen is claiming bullying as the reason she’s leaving is very hypocritical. In fact, she points to old tweets Teigen made about her that were very clearly examples of bullying. To make it worse, Stodden was just a teenager at the time.

Stodden explained to TMZ that she chose this specific tweet from Teigen to make her point “because she’s actually bullying me about getting kicked off of a social media platform, which, it’s ironic right? Because she left social media complaining about bullying.”
This is far from the only bullying tweet Stodden could have referenced. While Teigen’s tweets are no longer visible on Twitter, a few of them have been saved. In addition, Stodden says that Teigen even sent her DMs.
“She sent me so many different tweets, private DMs, up to a couple years ago. It really affected me and the bottom line is I never had a chance to forgive her. She’s never given me a chance toforgiveher. Forgiveness starts with ourselves but it’s so damaging when you havesomebody likeChrissyTeigenbullying children. So I think it’s time to speak out. I’m not going after her to bully her and I don’t think it’s okay that people are bullyingChrissy,but I also don’t think it’s okay to cry wolf either.”
Many people on Twitter find Teigen’s decision to leave over bullying hypocritical too.

Other people claim that Stodden deserves an apology. For backstory, Stodden was just 16 years old when she married 51-year-actor Doug Hutchson. She was considered a joke to more than just Teigen, but looking back, Stodden realizes she was an abused child.
A lottt of people owe this lady an apology. She’s a victim of CSA, being trafficked, and endless sexist online bullying (much of which from other women). Love her or not, she deserved none of those things. https://t.co/JqlQ7ShqR6
