“I am well aware that the story was not light humour and in fact very serious,” she (or perhaps a frantic publicist) penned.
Claiir issued a more formal apology hours later to “those [affected] by an accident that happened in the past”. Source: Instagram @emmaclaiir The 28-year-old Instagram star shared the admission on the latest episode of her pod,SimplyChaotic, and to say jaws were on the floor is an understatement.a wild TikTok video from November 2022 has resurfaced, showing that fans have voiced concerns over Claiir’s interactions with her pets in vids since last year. “[Pleased] you finally put that cat down and [stopped] swinging it around, it didn’t look cute,” one user commented. At the time, Claiir made a video response to the comment, as pointed out by Influencer Updates AU, which has absolutely not aged well given her recent confessions. Yikes.
“There’s always like one hero… that loves to act as if people treat their animals that they absolutely love and adore so horribly,” she said in response.“Like it happens in every single video that I upload with my animals… I receive one of these comments.”“I’ve had multiple ginger cats my whole entire life and multiple of other cats my whole entire life because myself and my family are cat obsessed.”another video
