I Heard a Rumor… Aidan Gallagher Is Cancelled?

Okay, I was not expecting to spend time on Twitter reading about another problematic kid in Hollywood. But as someone who is a fan of The Umbrella Academy on Netflix, I decided to share some alleged tea about Number Five’s behavior online.

I’m not a fan of having content I enjoy be ruined because of a certain cast member’s behavior. It was one of the reasons I decided not to watch Locke and Key on Netflix. And with the current Aidan Gallagher situation unraveling on Twitter, watching The Umbrella Academy Season 2 is going to be a very different experience for me.

Now, before I carry on, I have to say that the information I’ll be sharing in this post is all alleged. From being accused of being transphobic, a creep toward girls, racist, threatening to doxx someone, and more, there’s a lot of tea spilling online about Aidan Gallagher.

We all know that there’s always more than one side to every story. So, if Gallagher is reading this and wants to reach out, we are all ears.

I got to know about this situation when I saw #aidangallagherisoverparty. Then I saw a thread by Twitter user @nathanyounq going over a lot of the stuff that Gallagher has (allegedly) done over the years and why people are over him. The thread does include screenshots. So, it’s kind of tough to believe that Gallagher didn’t do at least some of the (alleged) stuff he’s being called out for.

Anyway, here I go sharing some examples (there’s a lot more serious stuff in the thread if you want to read further)!

Sigh!

Currently, Gallagher is 16 years old. And seeing all of those screenshots have again made me think that celebrities should not have access to their social media accounts without professional supervision.

Anyway, what do you make of this situation?

Let us know.
