“It’s been a wild ride.
It’s been crazy,” Chelsea says of the response to what she thought was an innocent comment.
“I am very surprised of how I’m handling it.
Obviously I’ve never been put in this situation, I didn’t know what to expect.
I knew not everyone was going to love me.
I did not expect this whole hate dilemma to come from this comment.
But I’m really proud of myself for how I’ve been handling it.
It comes with the territory and I’m just riding this wave though.”
“Neither did Jimmy, so they’re acting the same way Jimmy did,” she says.
“They heard what they wanted to hear and they ran with it.”
But everything happens for a reason."
“And that’s all I’m focusing on right now.
I’m not focusing on the hate or anything like that.
Not everyone’s going to love you, and I’m okay with that.”
New episodes ofLove Is Blindseason 6 premiere Wednesdays on Netflix.
