Courtney shared that she remains blocked by Chrissy
She also shared that she had “accepted” the apology from Chrissy but remains blocked by the star.
“But the truth remains the same, I have never heard from her or her camp in private. In fact, she blocked me on Twitter,” Courtney added.
“All of me wants to believe this is a sincere apology, but it feels like a public attempt to save her partnerships with Target and other brands who are realizing her ‘wokeness’ is a broken record.
