Host of Celebrity Skin Talk found himself fighting back tears as he spoke candidly to Emma Morgan about the unexpected experience after defending JoJo during the Mickey drama.
“It all just got too much,” Scott said on the show, his voice trembling. “I wasn’t expecting it to blow up the way it did. I spoke out for JoJo because I felt it was the right thing to do as I've been in a similar situation… but what came after, was shocking.”
Scott revealed that the volume of online messages, backlash, and the overwhelming negativity took a toll on him,
“I’ve stayed off social media for days I didn't want to open my TikTok at all,” he admitted. “It stopped being a safe space. People don’t realise how far it can go. You speak out for someone and suddenly you’re the target.”
The conversation with Emma marked one of Scott’s most vulnerable moments on the series to date, offering viewers a raw look at the human cost behind headlines and comment sections.
Fans watching the live episode were quick to rally around Scott with messages of love and support flooding the chat. One wrote, “You did the right thing, always proud of you,” while another added, “People forget there’s a real person behind the screen. You’re brave for speaking out.” The overwhelming response made it clear that, despite the backlash, Scott’s honesty had deeply resonated with viewers.
Still, despite everything, Scott stood by his decision. “I said it because I believed in it. and honestly, I’d do it again.”
The moment resonated deeply with viewers, many praising Scott for his honesty and strength. For a show that celebrates skincare and the stories behind the faces, this episode reminded everyone that sometimes, the scars you can’t see are the ones people carry the longest.
