She expressed her frustration with the rumors and comments.
As shared by MMA Hype News on Instagram, Merle has posted a message urging fans to stop the comments and rumors. She mentioned that since the comments and rumors haven’t stopped or slowed down; she felt a statement from her is much needed. In her statement, she extended her best wishes to Pereira and requested the fans, saying:
“Sometimes in life a relationship doesn’t work and people are deciding to take two different ways. And I think it’s something everybody has to respect and it doesn’t mean that there is bad blood between these two people so I would appreciate it if people would stop to comment and to put some rumors on the internet. Most of it is not true and I wish Alex all the best and a lot of success in his career.”
