Libby Mae posted a two part apology denying her sister ever kissed her neck

She says: “So I just thought I would come on here to make a quick video about my previous videos as I’m literally seeing it all over my for you page and I’m seeing loads of people make videos about it including creators.” She continues to say as all her fans know, she and her sister have a “very close bond” and so does her girlfriend. Libby says: “All my captioned videos have been taken all the wrong way – she’s literally my sister. We cuddle, it’s not weird at all and it’s only weird for the people that sort of make it weird. It’s literally not weird at all and she definitely did not kiss my neck on that video. I don’t know why people are saying that.”

Libby continues: “I can see why people are taking it the wrong way, I could have used a better audio, I could have captioned the video differently so I’m not disagreeing with that at all. I don’t know why people are so bothered about what I’m doing, why they have to make a video to make me realise – especially creators and people with a high following. Like obviously if you’ve got a high following it is going to cause hate and your followers are going to come over to me and bring hate to my page.” You can watch the first part to her side here.

In the second part Libby says “anyone with a close bond with their siblings would understand it’s normal to cuddle. Lexie did not kiss my neck whatsoever, I feel like it’s only been taken this way and only got weird because people are making it weird. obviously as you all know I do get a lot of hate across my social media platforms so people are using it as an excuse to give hate towards me.” She continues to say she’s genuinely sorry if the video has affected anyone, it was only put out as a joke.

At the end of the video Libby says: “If I wasn’t gay I don’t think this would ahve been considered wrong in any way shape or form and it’s not fair to use that against me.”
