Garcelle Beauvais might occasionally create dramas on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but she is sure about one thing; her children must be kept away from those dramas.

This statement from the reality TV star came after RHOBH fans recently dragged her older and middle son amid Garcelle’s feud with her fellow cast members Erika Jayne, Lisa Rinna, and Diana Jenkins.

On August 23, 2022, Garcelle took to her Twitter handle to express her disappointment and ask trolls to leave her kids out of the dramas on the Bravo TV show. In the end, she even used the hashtag “#RHOBH.”

Her tweet read, “I’m usually a very strong woman I’ve been raised to be strong my life has taught me to be strong, but when it comes to my kids! It hurts it’s not OK I’ve been in tears all night it’s just a TV show people scream at your TV, throw something at your TV but leave our kids alone.”

Garcelle also posted the same thing via her Instagram handle, where other celebrities agreed with her and poured their support. “LEAVE THEM ALONE,” wrote Crystal Kung Minkoff, with Dorit Kemsley adding, “NOT OK!”

Moments later, Garcelle’s co-star Rinna also chimed in to show her support with a lengthy message shared via her Instagram story. “We are doing a TV show. We are trying to entertain you – why can’t you treat it like wrestling for gods sake love us – love to hate us,” she initially wrote.

Rinna then added, “But leave the kids alone! What I was just sent about @garcelle son is disgusting and unacceptable. … They didn’t sign up for this. What are doing?! The kids – all of our kids should be off limits, so stop it now. Enough is enough.”

Later that day, Garcelle’s middle child, Jax Joseph Nilon, took to his Instagram stories to share a clip of him scrolling through the comment section of his Instagram post of July 17, 2022. “I’m a [explicit] 14 year old leave me alone please,” he had written over the video.

As for what was seen in the video, it was comments left by trolls and RHOBH fans that called Garcelle illiterate and a “D-list actress” who runs after fame. Some also accused Garcelle of “using race for everything” and called Jax’s family “immigrants.”

Additionally, some trolls took the chance to attack Garcelle’s oldest son, Oliver Saunders, and his struggle with addiction, about which Garcelle has been quite open on the Bravo show.

One Instagram user had written, “Your mom calling Erika [an] alcoholic when your older brother was a drug addict. Pot calling the kettle black.”

“Why is your mom obsessed with Erika’s alcohol intake, shouldn’t she be worried about your brother Oliver[‘s] drug intake instead?” wrote another cyberbully.

After that, Jax posted a screenshot of a comment which crossed the limit. The comment read, “You’d have your neck kneeled on if it weren’t for your white daddy, [Michael Nilon]. Tell your mom to leave Diana alone or you’ll deal with us.”

To such a horrifying comment, Jax had only one thing to say, “Too far at this point.” Moreover, he had a more calming response in his latter Instagram stories.

He wrote, “Well, I’d like to start off by saying I am still a kid and wish not to be viewed as a fully matured adult because I am not one. It is currently my first week of high school, and instead of enjoying it like most kids at my school, I have to deal with being attacked on social media.”

As he continued, he mentioned that he neither signed up for RHOBH nor had anything to do with its drama. He then stressed that he only wanted to be a normal kid and that his Instagram handle wasn’t for publicity or the public’s gaze.

That said, Garcelle and her three children are doing well and handling the trolls calmly. Garcelle shares her oldest son, Oliver, with her ex-husband Daniel Saunders — Oliver was born on February 22, 1991. The former duo divorced in 2000.

Later, in 2001, Garcelle married CAA agent Michael Nilon and welcomed twin sons, Jax Joseph Nilon and Jaid Thomas Nilon, on October 18, 2007. Garcelle and Michael ended their marriage after the former found that her husband was having an affair.

Faizon Love Discusses Health and Fixation on Weight Loss

Faizon Love, who was originally named Langston Faizon Santisima and was born in Cuba, is an actor and comedian. 

He is most famous for his appearances in various comedy movies such as The Meteor ManDon’t Be a Menace, Friday, BAP*S, Elf, The Replacements, Made, and Couples Retreat. 

Additionally, he lent his voice to the character of Sean “Sweet” Johnson in the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and played the role of Wendell Wilcox on the television show The Parent ‘Hood.

He defended Lizzo after an interviewer mentioned that Kanya West and others fat-shamed her, accusing her of promoting an unhealthy lifestyle. Here are some more details on the topic. 

Faizon Love opened up about fat shaming and health 

During an interview with Tucker Carlson on Fox News, West criticized the body-positivity movement by using Lizzo as an example. West referred to Lizzo as his “good friend” and explained that when she loses weight, she is attacked on social media by “bots” who promote the idea that being overweight is a desirable goal when in reality, it is unhealthy. 

In an Interview with VLAD TV, Love was asked by the interviewer, “ A lot of people, you know, including Kanye and so forth have fat-shamed Lizzo. He mentioned Lizzo and how they are promoting an unhealthy lifestyle.”

The interviewer mentioned how in the industry, no one raises a similar question when other male artists are heavy like DJ Khalid, and it’s a kinda sexist thing to address women like Lizzo and other artists.

“Now someone who is heavyset himself, how do you feel when someone talks about Lizzo,” he asked Love. To which he replied, “There is racism against big people, and also there are these theories that because you are big you’re unhealthy. That’s a [expletive] lie.”

He continued, “It’s for stupid people. Cause, I know a lot of skinny [people] dying right now, that is very unhealthy. You know Halle Berry has diabetes.”

Faizon Love sued Universal in 2020

Love sued Universal in November 2020 over his and Kali Hawk’s removal from the international poster of “Couples Retreat,” claiming it was racism.

Following the lawsuit, Love issued a statement: “This film was a big money-maker for Universal, but instead of honoring my work and my contract, the studio chose to render me invisible to billions of moviegoers around the world,” as per Variety.

His suit also claimed that Vince Vaughn had advised him “that making a big deal about his removal from the poster would not be good for his career at that time.”

Love claimed Universal did not honor a previous agreement to feature him in future films, which affected his career, but he withdrew the lawsuit in January 2021 after reaching an amicable agreement with Universal.

Despite this, Love continued to find work in smaller roles and projects, as per his IMDb page, including appearances on Black-ish and Step Up: High Water. Love stated in a 2016 interview that his work created roles for other actors.
