Fashion designer Michael Costello has now accused Chrissy Teigen of bullying after she posted her public apology letter. The Project Runway alum revealed he had “suicidal thoughts” after the bullying.
Chrissy Teigen is trying to get back on everyone’s good graces. The funny model and cookbook author has written a public apology where she takes responsibility for the things she’s said in the past.
Last month, Courtney Stodden accused Chrissy of bullying when they were a teenager.
Courtney said: “[Chrissy] wouldn’t just publicly tweet about wanting me to take ‘a dirt nap’ but would privately DM me and tell me to kill myself. Things like, ‘I can’t wait for you to die.’ She has sent me so many different tweets. Private DMs, up ’til a couple years ago. It’s so damaging when you have someone like Chrissy Teigen bullying children.”
Chrissy took a month-long break from social media, and returned with a lengthy apology. She had previously apologized to Stodden.
But now fashion designer Michael Costello accuses Chrissy Teigen of bullying over a photoshopped screenshot where he allegedly used the N-word.
“She apparently formed her own opinion of me based on a photoshopped comment floating around the internet. When I reached out to Chrissy Teigen to communicate that I was the victim of a vindictive cyber slander, and that everything she thought I was is not who I am, she told me that my career was over and that all my doors will be shut from there on.”
“For the past 7 years, I’ve lived with a deep, unhealed trauma. I wanted to kill myself and I still am traumatized, depressed and have thoughts of suicide.”
Costello added that colleagues and friends said Chrissy allegedly threatened people and brands “if they were in any shape or form associated with me” and said that “throughout the next few years, I would book jobs only to be pulled off last minute with no explanation.”
In her apology letter, Chrissy noted that she’s no longer the same person, and went to therapy, and strives to do better. She commented on her need to look cool, and appreciated the irony of being on the other side now.
