Hudson Williams & Francois Arnaud Share Joint Message Slamming Hateful Comments They've Received on Social Media

Hudson Williams and Francois Arnaud are putting an end to all of the hate the stars of Heated Rivalry have been facing on social media.

On Monday (March 9), Hudson, 25, and Francois, 40, shared a joint message on their Instagram Stories slamming all of the so-called “fans” that have been sending hateful messages to the actors.

“We all respect and support and love each other and are on the same side,” they continued. “If you can’t accept that [get the f--k out of here].”

Ksenia Daniela Kharlamova, who plays Svetlana on Heated Rivalry, reposted Hudson and Francois‘ message on her own Instagram Story, adding, “Plz don’t make a show that’s about love be hateful online. So much love was poured into this project and we all genuinely have so much respect for everyone involved in making this.”

“We’re not characters and neither are our real friends, partners, family and making up false narratives about us isn’t ‘love,’” she continued. “So much good has come from this show so let’s keep that going!! Share the love, the art, the dance parties, the friends made, the positivity!!”

Robbie G.K. also reposted Hudson and Francois‘ message on his Instagram Story, while adding the crown and heart emojis.

This isn’t the first time that Francois has publicly addressed the nasty comments he’s been facing online following the premiere of Heated Rivalry.

After being hit with a lot of hate amid rumors he’s dating co-star Connor Storrie, Francois clapped back by sharing a photo of himself sticking up the middle finger. Then in an interview, he addressed all of the online harassment and shared how he navigates this newfound attention.
