Jake Short to Ex-Fiancée
I Crossed A Line With That ‘Disrespectful’ Podcast Joke
Jake Short is owning up to a resurfaced podcast clip that’s sparked backlash online … admitting he made a “disrespectful, juvenile joke” about now-ex fiancée Mika Abdalla.
“I made a disrespectful, juvenile joke in a clip that recirculated this week,” Short wrote. “It’s imperative to me that I take accountability as I am aware that it was inappropriate.”
“I continue to learn from this situation and work to show people the respect they deserve,” he continued.
“We’ve seen a conversation around clips of us together when we were in a relationship, and people making harmful and inaccurate assumptions about our dynamic,” they said. “We were in a loving, respectful relationship for five years … it’s hurtful to see playful moments dissected in a way that does not reflect the respect and love we had and still have for each other.”
