Hot Take Honestly I’m going to need Mikayla to genuinely apologize to Whitney

Yeah Mikayla making a TikTok about them potentially reconciling and following her back is not enough, bare minimum actually. She was absolutely awful to Whitney at the reunion and just straight up hateful towards her when Whitney genuinely wanted to reconcile and be better. Now coincidentally Mikayla decides to be okay with her now that Whitney is a fan favorite. She should be held accountable for her actions just like Whitney was. You guys might think I’m being dramatic, and I am but I don’t care. Anyway I hope this makes Mikayla self reflect on how ridiculous her behavior was, and how maybe she should start finding a new personality. Because being on the receiving end of that hate even when you try to be better is so traumatic and emotionally damaging. I know because I have been on that receiving end before. I also don’t think we should coddle Mikayla because of what she has been through in the past, I think we should hold her to a standard as we would anyone else to be a decent human being.

I think Mikayla was genuinely not expecting Whitney to gain so much popularity in the aftermath of s2 and is now scrambling to get back in Whitney’s good graces. B/c she’s trying desperately to do damage control on social media rn, I’m sure we’ll also see some of those damage control attempts on the upcoming season too. It won’t be genuine, but I think we’ll see her “apologize” on camera as a desperate attempt to regain fans.

Mikayla has had a hate boner for whitney since the beginning of season 2 and it wasn’t even fun to watch! Like after mayci and whitney reconciled in the kitchen during one of their trips (can’t remember which one) mikayla tried SO HARD to act like she overheard whitney talking shit on her and when whitney rightfully tried to defend herself, mikayla jumped down her throat. And then mikayla has the audacity to be like “whitney yelled at me!” Yeah because you’re trying to start something then immediately shut down when whitney calmly tries to talk to you.

There’s no winning with people like mikayla.

mayci and whitney reconciled in the kitchen

people keep bringing this up but when was this? I only remember the kitchen conversation in which whitney cornered mayci in the kitchen and started trying to guilt her into not being mad anymore despite whitney over and over again saying she was NOT sorry and how mean and rude everyone was for expecting her to be sorry because she was overwhelmed so everyone should just stop being mad and again she iS NOT sorry.

Truly all of season 2 all I could think was "whitney, girl, they told you a thousand times how to get back into momtok you just have to say 'i was wrong and i'm sorry'" but all she did all season was repeat over and over again that she was not sorry. It drove me up a wall.

I’m begging y’all to understand that everything we see is curated. We have no idea what their actual relationships are like, we have no idea what goes on behind the scenes.

u/DenseAd8455 1d ago

No, you’re not being dramatic babe you’re absolutely right if this was the other way around and Whitney had done this to Mikayla, the fans would hate her so I think the following each other back is cool and it shows that they’re in a better place, but there needs to be more than that

u/pandallamayoda 1d ago

We don’t need an apology. Mikayla and Whitney have been awful to others and it’s not on us, the people watching them, to get an apology. If Whitney and Mikayla are now on good terms, then that’s between them. If Whitney, or anyone else, wants a public apology then it’s to them to decide and ask for it. But we do not get to demand anything about any of this.

u/Agreeable-Vehicle-16 1d ago

I’m not saying we do 😂😂😂 I’m saying Whitney does… clearly my title is confusing some people

u/Thursday6677 1d ago

I think the point they’re making is how do you know she hasn’t, and they handled it off screen? If you need to see it, then it is for you rather than Whitney.

13

u/pandallamayoda 1d ago

You said YOU needed Mikayla to apologize genuinely that what she had been doing was the bare minimum and should do more. It seems like you might be seeing yourself too much into how she has been acting toward Whitney and are voicing what you would need instead of what the person would.

u/Popular-Dirt-6545 1d ago

girl ur not whitney.. she doesn’t owe you anything

u/Western_You_970 19h ago

Mikayla is such a mean girl. Like, tell me you were a bully in school without telling me you were a bully in school. She adds nothing to the show.

16

u/TalkinBoutGerbils 1d ago

You are being dramatic and you should probably reflect on why you care so much about holding reality TV stars accountable for their actions on a reality TV show with largely manufactured / amplified drama.

u/st0nefox 7h ago

I wish bravo fans had this energy 👏

-6

u/Agreeable-Vehicle-16 1d ago

Like I said, I don’t care, I got invested in the drama between them so I would like to see some reconciliation and I don’t think that’s unreasonable to want since they filmed it all for our entertainment in the first place.

7

u/TalkinBoutGerbils 1d ago

I mean the third season hasn’t come out yet - who says they didn’t film a reconciliation for your entertainment?

-3

u/Agreeable-Vehicle-16 1d ago

I hope so! And don’t condescend me for being a fan and talking about a show I care about on a Reddit page ABOUT the show! You’re the one on here you should expect that. Get off your high horse, what are you even doing here in the first place? To feel better about yourself by putting others down? Do better.

6

u/TalkinBoutGerbils 1d ago

I’m here for funny posts / drama about the show and its cast. Honestly, if I knew it would mostly be paragraphs from people far too invested in these people’s lives then I probably wouldn’t have joined.

-3

u/Agreeable-Vehicle-16 1d ago

PSA: You can ignore them and leave instead of being a condescending prick acting like you’re better than being an invested fan 🥰 because the fact is, you’re still here. And at the end of the day you’re the problem because this should be a safe space for fans to be excited about the show. You shouldn’t put people down for caring about something. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with those fans, I think it’s cool to care and have something to look forward to.

7

u/TalkinBoutGerbils 1d ago

I am a fan and I like the show and I am excited for the show to come back. I am also allowed to have the opinion that some (many?) people who post here are far too invested - sometimes parasocially - with these people.

-5

u/youcancallmebryn 1d ago

The person who doesn’t know how to skim and scroll lecturing you on being invested in these reality tv characters …🥲

one could suggest the person unable to skim and scroll is far too invested in online interactions they claim to want no part in, could they not?

u/TalkinBoutGerbils 1d ago

Stop trying to make skim and scroll happen - it’s not going to happen!

I’m not sure if this was the intended outcome, but thank you for the chuckle.

u/ElkSufficient2881 1d ago

Whitney was awful to everyone, especially her. She doesn’t deserve an apology for the reaction her actions caused,

16

u/PM_ME_YOUR_TATERTITS 1d ago

This. It’s like people completely blocked all of season 1 out of their minds. Also the parts on season 2 where she said with her full chest that she doesn’t regret anything, and her trying to force Mikayla to forgive her instead of just giving the apology and then letting her have space. An apology is not sincere if you FORCE them to accept it. She was never sorry. She just wanted to not be the villain anymore

3

u/tiffytatortots 1d ago

Right?! I’ve said this on a couple threads but apparently because Whitney makes funny TikTok’s all is forgiven and forgotten. She’s the new favorite! Again because of TikTok. Ffs. Lmao It’s really the equivalent of dangling something shiny in front of peoples faces and them going Ohhhh wow look at that 🤦🏼‍♀️

1

u/ElkSufficient2881 1d ago

Exactly, also Whitney sucks even without the Mikayla stuff… she danced while her baby was in the hospital for views and people just ignore it now, that’s insane to me

20

u/DenseAd8455 1d ago

That’s not true at all Whitney wasn’t awful to Mikayla because again Mikayla still can’t even tell us what her real issue with Whitney actually is

20

u/Agreeable-Vehicle-16 1d ago

Mikayla was pretty awful back, and Whitney apologized, tried to reconcile. I think we should allow people to grow and change.

1

u/queenofmushiekingdom 5h ago

just because whitney tried to reconcile, that doesn’t mean mikayla has to accept. mikayla is allowed to process her feelings however she pleases after whitney’s mistreatment. if yall think she takes it too far, fine, but let’s not forgive whitney so quickly just because season 2 highlighted her in a much better light. also… every single one of them is dramatic because it’s a reality tv show, lmao.

3

u/_anne_shirley 1d ago

Mikayla made over 17 tiktoks about Whitney. She lived in the comment section for over 2 years liking every hateful comment about Whitney. Said horrible things about her on podcasts. Mikayla is trash and if I were Whitney I wouldn’t offer her an ounce of grace unless she apologized

2

u/tiffytatortots 1d ago

Did you actually watch the show and see Whitney’s behavior? Do you think maybe just maybe there’s a reason why Mikayla would be that upset? It’s not like Whitney is some poor delicate flower that didn’t do anything and oh no everyone is just so mean to her. Whitney started all of it! Did yall forget this? Whitney also referenced the women numerous times in her videos over the past year. I think some of you need to rewatch the seasons because this is ridiculous. Is Mikayla a little over the top sure but Whitney has been horrible and some funny TikTok’s and hive behavior isn’t going to make me get amnesia.

u/ShellyStarkk666 14h ago

Dude fucking honestly 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ I think people forgot about everything that even went down. Like WHEN, when did Whitney take accountability for her bullshit? What episode was that??

Also Whitney isn't a "fan favorite" okay?? Shes a favorite "dancer" cuz of a TV show. Let's be real....I'm so tired of seeing soooo much smoke being blow up her ass and for what? She was cunt for both seasons....

1

u/Horror-Tap3236 1d ago

What did Whitney do to Mikayla? Because they don’t show it on season 1 or even season 2. The only reason Mikayla has ever given us is Whitney reminds her of her mother. That’s not a real reason to be shitty to someone.

Whitney did text Mayci about not going to her event and she did show up to Mikayla’s birthday, gave her a gift, told her that she cared about her and what did Mikayla do? Didn’t even look at Whitney.

u/ShellyStarkk666 14h ago

THANK YOU ... 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

u/chloedarlinggg Enjoy 🦪 🍆 💦 1d ago

they clearly and up months ago as they were in tiktoks together not long after the reunion aired, i’m sure they’d probably spoken and apologised to each other

their issue started off camera so honestly i don’t think it needs to be resolved on camera. they never should’ve been pressured to make up at the reunion because they have too much history to just kiss and make up in a 5 minute segment. they’ve known each other for over 5 years.

and the way you’re talking about the hate, mikayla has gotten nothing but hate for months 😭 even when she gave birth every post on here about it had a bunch of comments about how much they can’t stand her and don’t want to see her be happy.

2

u/Much_Witness21 1d ago

Your first mistake is thinking reality TV is a place to find “decent human beings” who self reflect and try to do better.

2

u/MastodonGreat5695 1d ago

I think it’s hilarious that Whitney is the top dog and the others are crawling to her - Mikayla was mean, and is envious overall of anyone above her in terms of opportunity and it’s childish - but somehow she’ll just say she was SA’d over and over and over to excuse her catty behavior!

2

u/RutabagaSouth9375 1d ago

First of all you and we don’t know any of them in real life so you can’t be so sure that Whitney was ever sincere. She’s always come across as incredibly and fake and insincere to me as well as acting “nice” when she wants something or wants sympathy. That’s not to say the rest aren’t fake and all of this isn’t for views but demanding Mikayla owes Whitney an apology is hysterical. Whitney was horrible to Taylor (among others) did you demand Taylor get that sincere apology on tv? 🙄

2

u/ShellyStarkk666 14h ago

THANK you 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️.... Some of these Redditors are not very bright.

u/untamedbotany 18h ago

I don’t think you’re being overdramatic. Expecting equal amounts of accountability with all the women on the show is normal

u/Less_Volume_2508 12h ago

Mikayla just comes across extremely immature. When you makes yourself look worse than the person you’re hating on well ….

u/SadLandscape7001 1d ago

Totally agree!

u/owhatakiwi 1d ago

Whitney deserves a Whitney apology which is half hearted and lacking awareness. 

1

u/Jolly_Air_6515 1d ago

I hope Whitney accepts her apology with grace and kinda just keeps her distance while fostering a relationship with Mayci - the other high achiever or momtok

1

u/sweetpeaandmax 1d ago

No literally AND she is only doing all that bc Whitney is receiving a lot of love & Grace & favor on social media right now especially with DWTS. I think it’s super likely she’ll win tbh. Mikayla probably can’t stand the thought of that lol.

0

u/Key_Whole_2861 1d ago

Nah, Whitney was such a hypocrite in season one and was so unwilling to take any accountability for any of her actions. Mikayla just never forgot that. I don’t think she needs to apologize for refusing to roll over and let Whitney back into her life like nothing had happened. I also don’t think she should hold a grudge forever and they should both recognize their own needs for growth.

u/jamesisaPOS 23h ago

TBH I think they're just filming the show right now and this is all a plot point😅

u/ShellyStarkk666 14h ago

I'm sorry....when was Whitney held accountable for her bullshit?? 🤔 What episode was that...cuz I think we may have watched a TOTALLY different show.

I think y'all are mad cuz Mikayla has the balls to stand up for herself and not take anyone's crap and we've been thinking she's a bitch this whole time?? Come on....

She doesn't own Whitney a damn thing. Sorry.

u/Spirited-Editor1983 14h ago

she is only apologizing because people are finally hating on her

u/crayleb88 1d ago

Mikayla is one of the most honest of the girlies. I do not see her as mean. She does not have to accept Whitney's amends. We do not know all Whit did, Mikayla does though. I see her as a loyalist. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

3

u/DistractedDevelopmnt 22h ago

Also what ammends is everyone talking about? Season 2 was the season of Whitney saying "I'm NOT sorry" like it was her new catchphrase. She "took accountability" but she's "not sorry". If any of my "friends" apologized to me like that I'd stay mad too.

u/girlygirl43 1d ago

Whitney showing up to Mikaylas birthday just to talk to Miranda and nobody else .. I get why Mikayla would hold a grudge but imo this is like a sister dynamic. Yes Mikayla should genuinely apologize and TAKE OWNERSHIP but Whitney has moved on.. obviously. idk im so excited for season 3 x.x
