Former Disney star Skai Jackson is under social media scrutiny after confirming her pregnancy, sparking backlash following rumors about her boyfriend’s past. The 22-year-old actress, known for her roles on ‘Jessie’ and ‘Bunk'd,’ was seen in recent paparazzi photos flaunting her baby bump in a white crop top and light blue jeans. However, the joyful reveal quickly turned contentious when allegations surfaced about her partner's criminal record and personal history.
An individual under the username “Yerkky Yerkky” claimed to be the father of Jackson’s child and shared a Facebook post that appeared to throw shade at her, saying, “On woop im salty i got this dumb a** Disney Chanel (sic) b*h pregnant I hate this h.” Blogger Tasha K amplified the post by sharing a screenshot, prompting Jackson and her mother to speak out. The actress replied in the comments, “His page was hacked! He never said this. End of story.” Jackson’s mother also insisted, “HE NEVER SAID THIS!!!! Stop being messy!!!”
The situation escalated as Tasha K continued revealing additional allegations about Jackson’s boyfriend, stating that he was formerly incarcerated and that Jackson allegedly became his pen pal during his imprisonment. According to the blogger, Jackson reportedly bailed him out, and he is the father of three children with three different women.
Social media users have since expressed frustration with the ongoing drama, with several commenters criticizing Jackson’s decision to defend her partner. The actress’s responses have fueled further debate online as she navigates both public and personal challenges in light of her pregnancy announcement.
