Popular content creator Jarvis has come under intense criticism following a viral moment where she repeatedly told her boyfriend, Peller, to “shut up” during a conversation on the BTS Reality Show.
The controversy erupted after the latest episode of the reality series aired, in which Jarvis opened up about her past struggles with a mouth tumor and how she navigated through the challenging period with Peller’s support.
During the conversation, Jarvis recounted how Peller stood by her side when she was battling health issues. She explained that she had chosen not to involve her family in the ordeal because she did not want them to experience the stress of traveling to Lagos to care for her.
“I came to Lagos after school even though I didn’t like it because of how rowdy it is, but it is the centre of business. He [Peller] is like family to me, and I accepted him like that. So, when I wasn’t feeling fine, I didn’t want to involve my parents, but he was by my side,” she shared.
However, as she was sharing her story, Peller attempted to interject, but Jarvis sternly told him to “shut up.” The moment quickly sparked reactions online, with many viewers expressing their displeasure at the way she dismissed him.
Several social media users noted that this was not an isolated incident, recalling past instances where Jarvis had been seen shutting Peller down in public. While some criticized her behavior as disrespectful, others suggested it might simply be the way they communicate as a couple.
The incident has fueled ongoing debates about their relationship dynamic, with many questioning whether Peller is being treated fairly in their interactions. Critics argue that Jarvis’ repeated use of the phrase in public settings could be perceived as a sign of disrespect, while some fans defend her, saying it is just their way of communicating.
A social media user, @Crageslim, questioned, “Why is she always telling Peller to shut up?”
Another user, @Tarilabor_, added, “Jarvis is disrespectful. And she will definitely lose this guy.”
@_richieandrew_ commented, “This girl go later beat Peller. Because what’s all this ‘shut up’ I’m hearing?”
@matrumery wrote, “I see them breaking up soon because Jarvis doesn’t appreciate Peller’s sacrifices. Jarvis is also kind of rude and doesn’t respect Peller. Peller’s eyes for now are covered with love, so he can’t see or perceive 🚩.”
As discussions about their relationship continue to gain traction, many are eagerly watching to see if Jarvis will address the backlash or if Peller will speak out about the situation.
