Recently, she shared a video on her IG, showing fans how life has been for her since news broke that she isn’t a part of the upcoming season. In the footage, King cleaned the stove at her Florida vegan restaurant. She captioned the post, “A job is a job.”

In March 2024, King, who is also a comedian, joked about the uncertainty of her role and the series’ return during a standup performance. At the time, rumors surrounding a possible cancelation following a years-long hiatus were strong. King noted that fans were demanding a new season and joked,

“B*tch, I need season 3, I haven’t paid my rent in six months.”

Supporters of King flooded the comments of her latest post, expressing disappointment that she is no longer a part of the cast.

Do you still have plans to tune in for the next go-around of Euphoria? Or has the long delay and lists of cast members not returning turned you off?
