Brad later said: “Again, Rachel, NOT a bombshell,” while the other Islanders laughed once more - and Rachel later hopped on to Instagram Stories to call out her former co-stars for ‘bullying’ her a year on after the show.
In a lengthy statement, Rachel wrote: “I have actual nobodies mimicking me and discussing me publicly like a joke. I am FULLY over it and regret going on the show. Why is this deserving of going on a TV show?"
"How do these actual idiots think it's ok to publicly discuss me like that?" she added, "And not just today. Multiple, multiple and multiple times over. TODAY a year later and I'm still being bullied/taunted openly for all to see.”
Brad and Tyler later went on to share statements apologising and said they tried to reach out to Rachel personally.
However, Rachel has now shared a video to her Instagram Stories, branding their apologies ‘a joke’, adding that their statements ‘have been put out just to save [their] backs’.
“I am not right with anyone that’s been involved in anything that’s been said about me. I never will,” Rachel said.
“You can apologise but it can’t be received. I’m not receiving any of these apologies. I’m not taking any of these false statements.”
