Without directly addressing the dating speculation, she called out the negativity directed at her, writing:

“"It’s sad to see how some people carry so much darkness inside that they go as far as to wish death upon someone they don’t even know. What others project says more about them than it does about me. I choose to live with purpose, to keep growing, and to surround myself with light."

"To those who wish me harm, I wish healing—because no one who is truly well with themselves wants to destroy another. ❤️"
