Jameela Jamil's Boyfriend Speaks Out On Fans 'Dogpiling' And 'Gaslighting' Her

It all began when "Pot Psychology" host, Tracie Egan Morrissey, spoke about The Good Place alum on her podcast.

In it, she accused Jamil of making contradictory statements about her health struggles in several interviews.

For example, Morrissey discussed how Jamil told the Daily Mail in 2015 that she ran into oncoming traffic to avoid being stung by bees.

However, a different version of this story was reportedly told years later to Cosmopolitan.

In it, she said that getting hit by a car "basically destroyed" her back and left her confined to her bed to recover for "about a year" in bed.

According to WedMD, it's "a factitious disorder, a mental disorder in which a person repeatedly and deliberately acts as if he or she has a physical or mental illness when he or she is not really sick."

In a second tweet, she wrote:

"Oil tycoon destroying the planet, or a serial sex offender I would maybe understand this vitriol and effort to target and harass me. But I’m just a mental health/eating disorder advocate actually taking the time to change public policy and legislation to protect kids."

When Jamil saw the tweet, she didn't hold back in her response:

"All explained in the thread you weird, poorly researched stalker," she tweeted.

By mentioning lying about her sexuality, she was referring to the Twitter attacks she faced after coming out as queer at the beginning of February.

In a lengthy message posted to Twitter on February 14, he began with, "I would have spoken on this earlier but Jameela asked me not to. Please read x."

"She hasn’t sold dangerous products to kids. She hasn’t abused anyone. She hasn’t funded anything dangerous or brought any deliberate harm to any marginalized group. She’s just done her best as an ever learning human, as most of us are, to help other people with her privilege."

"She does this because she had such a difficult life. Because she doesn’t want others to feel alone, gaslit, or ashamed the way she has."

“I am there for her swollen joints, her dislocations, her severe allergic reactions, her constant high fevers,” he said.

“I was there for her concussion, her 3 months of seizures, when the doctor gave her the cancer diagnosis, and for all her operations and their complications due to EDS [Ehlers-Danlos syndrome]."

He continued:

"I actually live with her. Her being attractive, tall, and successful doesn’t mean she hasn’t been sick.”

It's a "genetic disorder that causes unusual flexibility and thin skin," according to WebMD.

“More and more people are discovering they have it, but because it’s vastly under researched and the patients, as with most invisible disabilities look well, people constantly doubt and mock those suffering."

"A lot of you literally think she’s Tahani from The Good Place. You don’t know what her life is, and has been life. But I do, and I’m not gonna stand by and let some total strangers try to push my girlfriend over the edge to what… stop her from helping kids with eating disorders?"

"It’s sick to watch, and I don’t ever see men treated like this, the way we tear women limb from limb."
