Michael Costello Says Chrissy Teigen’s Alleged Bullying Made Him Want to Kill Himself
Michael Costello is speaking out about his mental health and how he allegedly experienced bullying by Chrissy Teigen. The popular fashion designer claims that he was bullied so bad by the model that he contemplated killing himself. In a lengthy social media post, he claimed that he is still “traumatized, depressed and has thoughts of suicide” following Teigen and her stylist, Monica Rose, allegedly trying to ruin his career.
He began, “For the past 7 years, I’ve lived with a deep, unhealed trauma,” noting that
“some of my most profitable brand relationships; in fear of losing friends and allies; and in fear of being blocklisted [sic] even more by the power elites who run the industry.”
He seemingly claimed that Chrissy believed that he was racist, over an accusation made by what he said was an ex disgruntled employee. The allegations against him he said were made in 2014 and were untrue.
“She apparently formed her own opinion of me based on a photoshopped comment floating around the internet which has now been proven to be false by Instagram and since taken down. When I reached out to Chrissy Teigen to communicate that I was the victim of a vindictive cyber slander, and that everything she thought I was is not who I am, she told me that my career was over and that all my doors will be shut from there on.”
Costello claimed that over the next few years, he lost work “with no explanation” and the duo had allegedly
“gone out of their way to threaten people and brands that if they were in any shape or form associated with me, they would not work with any of them.”
