The unwanted attention she received from fans and online trolls broke up their relationship.
“I was embarrassed about this person. I have never announced any of my relationships on social media, and even this one, it came on social media by default. It was bad for my emotional state,” Yvette said.
According to Yvette, part of what led to their break up were the social media DMs that she got.
“I’m not a celebrity, but the fact that my life is out there, whoever is associated with me, they also become public," she said.
