Overview
- Hudson Williams and François Arnaud shared identical Instagram Stories on Monday condemning racist, homophobic, biphobic, misogynistic, ageist, ableist and parasocial comments, adding, “None of us need your hateful ‘love.’”
- Their message stressed cast unity — “We all respect and support and love each other and are on the same side” — and told those who reject that to “gtfoh.”
- Co-stars and creatives amplified the statement, with Robbie G. K., Ksenia Daniela Kharlamova, series creator Jacob Tierney and author Rachel Reid reposting or echoing the call for respect.
- Kharlamova added that the show was made with love and urged fans not to invent narratives about the actors or their friends and families, emphasizing that they are real people.
- Williams and Arnaud indicated the note was crafted together — with Arnaud saying he drafted it and Williams confirming on Threads that it was his idea — as coverage contextualized the posts within months of reported toxic fan harassment.
