Bravo has come out to condemn viewers attacking Garcelle Beauvais’ son on social media!
On August 23, Jax Nilon, was the target of several online trolls who came after him with nasty racist remarks. Garcelle’s son shared some of the comments that were coming after his mother and family. He wrote, “Its too far at this point.” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star also posted a message to both Twitter and Instagram in support of her son. “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.”
Bravo also came out in support of Garcelle and her 14-year-old son, Jax. “We are shocked and appalled at the social comments directed at Garcelle’s son,” reads the statement. “We urge our viewers and social followers alike to refrain from targeting our cast and their families with harmful rhetoric.” Other housewives like Lisa Rinna and Kyle Richards also condemned the hate towards the Bravo stars’ children.
Richards shared a post that read, “All right, let’s just get one thing straight. Picking on children of the housewives is not okay. It is never okay to attack a child. Is your life that actually empty? If it is, seek help. Shame on you.”
Lisa Rinna directly addressed the haters coming after Jax on her Instagram stories. “We are doing a tv show. We try to entertain you- why can’t you treat it like wrestling for gods sakes love us- love to hate us But leave the kids alone!” Rinna also pointed out other cases where Erika Jayne and Kyle Richards’ children were attacked.
Other housewives showed their support for Garcelle under one of her Instagram posts. Crystal Kung Minkoff wrote, “LEAVE THEM ALONE.” Dorit Kemsley said, “NOT OK!” Garcelle’s close friend and fellow RHOBH star, Sutton Stracke, also commented under the post, “We love you Jax!” Kathy Hilton also responded saying, “Disgusting and unacceptable.”
Garcelle shared a statement from her son who was forced to go private on Instagram. Jax said, “The constant support from everyone makes it much more tolerable. However, middle aged women spamming me with racist and crude comments about my family is not what I expected for my first week of high school.” He concluded by thanking all the fans for supporting him and sending positive comments to his family.
