Representatives for Millie Bobby Brown have issued a statement in response to some vulgar claims made by TikToker, Hunter ‘Echo’ Ecimovic via an Instagram Live.
Ecimovic and Brown reportedly once dated, back when Brown was just 16 years of age and Ecimovic was four years her senior.
Brown’s team stated, “Mr. Ecimovic’s remarks on social media are not only dishonest, but also are irresponsible, offensive and hateful. Instead of engaging in a public discourse with him through the press or on social media, we are taking action to ensure that he stops this behavior once and for all,” as reported by E!.
In the video, a follower posted in the Live, accusing Ecimovic of grooming Brown. He saw the comment and responded out loud: “I know, I groomed her.”
And he didn’t stop there.
According to Pedestrian he said, “You guys don’t know anything. You guys are just following after one person saying one thing, like, everybody hates him so that everyone’s going to hate me.”
“You guys just follow each other like a big duck followed by little ducks. Whatever the top thing is, you just follow up. You guys don’t know the story of anything, and I will never apologise. I hope you know that.
“I have nothing to apologise for, so make that clear. I have zero things to apologise for. You guys do not know a single thing at all.”
As reported by Pedestrian, the controversy of their past romance flared up last week as old photos of the former-pair surfaced online
E! have reportedly reached out for comment from Ecimovic. They are yet to receive a response, with his social media accounts also deactivated.
