00:11What exactly makes a plus size girl attractive to me is the ultimate million dollar question
00:18because I don't know. Open your eyes, look at what you see, and if it tingles it's right.
00:31Back in 99, my parents took my brother and I for a five-week round trip across the U.S.,
00:39including Disney World in Florida.
00:42And all of a sudden, in the aquarium section, there was this super-sized girl just walking around.
00:50I was obviously way too shy to talk to her. I had my parents in tow, so I would never.
00:57But it was a wake-up moment. It was like, okay, this is what I want.
01:01Paradise on three!
01:02One, two, three! Paradise!
01:06How do you want to do it?
01:07Take your dress off.
01:08I can take it off!
01:11Look at the people that are at the house right now. It doesn't get any more beautiful than these girls.
01:18Yeah, strut! Strut! Strut!
01:21This right here is the message of Paradise.
01:25You're afraid of the judgment.
01:27You feel like, I'm fat. I'm gonna die alone.
01:30But it's never the truth.
01:32I'm fat, but I'm not ugly.
01:36Five years ago, there's no way I would've been able to do that.
01:39My whole intention with Paradise was always just to bring positivity.
01:42I can confidently say the effect that it has had on so many people is priceless.
01:52Paradise is not a safe and positive place.
01:56Kimmy, aka Piggy Stardust, is a complete stranger.
02:00Somebody who never met me, never talked to me, never interacted with me, never been to the house.
02:05Quick recap.
02:06I made a TikTok that led to many women coming out with SA allegations against Paradise.
02:10Paradise...
02:10Her sole intent...
02:11He needs to be stopped and removed.
02:13...make Paradise disappear at any cost.
02:16You know, guilt trip!
02:17The things that they've done to me, the things that they've done to people around me, it has ruined everything.
02:21I need to finally tell my story because I need this to end.
02:29I want to ask you, are you a dangerous man?
02:33A
02:41I don't know.
03:09I don't know.
03:35But you get to the point where it's like, why am I still protecting this man?
03:45I know my truth.
03:48There's nothing that's going to stop me.
03:50I've lived in fear of this man for too long.
03:59When we met, I was, I want to say, 21, 22.
04:03He was in his mid-40s.
04:07Since the very beginning, the day we met, we were friends with Benefits.
04:11And he was actually really funny.
04:14He's a total nerd, which I actually liked at the time.
04:19June 17th, 2020.
04:24I was working six days a week and was so crazy tired.
04:29I'm in the hot tub.
04:31Eventually, his mom joins me.
04:33I was like, oh, I really hope he doesn't want to have sex.
04:37And I made that be known.
04:39But if he wants to have sex, you're going to have sex with him, whether you want to or not.
04:49His favorite line's like, you, you want to say no.
04:52You're going to say no.
04:53You never say no.
04:56So I'm in my swimsuit.
04:58He's trying to take it off.
04:59And I was like, fine.
05:02I help him take it off because I'm at this point just fed up.
05:06Stop touching me.
05:07Just stop touching me.
05:14By the time he's done, I'm disgusted.
05:19I don't want to look at him.
05:21I don't want to talk to him.
05:24I didn't even realize what had happened until I was telling my boss about it.
05:29And she's like, you were sexual assaulted.
05:33It made me angry.
05:35I was angry.
05:37When I confronted him about it, I told him, once a woman says no, it's a no.
05:46But that's not good enough for you.
05:48You don't stop till you get what you want.
05:52And he's like, oh, no, I don't feel that way.
05:59It went so far that he was showing what happened to me, to all the women he had in the
06:05house.
06:06From the recording, from his security cameras.
06:17There are multiple viewpoints in the living room, multiple viewpoints in his office, multiple viewpoints of the pool.
06:28And all of them are audio-enabled cameras.
06:33He constantly would use his camera footage in a way that is so toxic and manipulative.
06:41The whole situation was easy, honestly.
06:44In Stefan's eyes, he had to show them the proof that he had.
06:47That he was innocent.
06:51Come on in.
06:53I have full control over the entire house from here.
06:57We have the cameras in all the public areas and outside.
07:00Um, there's no cameras in any of the bedrooms or in any of the bathrooms, of course.
07:06There was a camera on your fireplace in your bedroom.
07:10Yeah, that's a temporary one that we sometimes use for making private content.
07:17All I can say is, like, me and Cece, whatever happened, happened.
07:25There was a time when her and I really talked it out, like adults.
07:29And we agreed that, like, you know, everything was good.
07:32And we hugged it out and actually cried a little bit.
07:34What made you cry?
07:36I felt bad.
07:38Who wants to be accused of rape?
07:49A month, month and a half after that.
07:53I actually found out I was pregnant, and I found out I was having twins.
08:00I was already expecting when I was sexually assaulted by Stefan in his hot tub.
08:07My biggest fear was being a single mother.
08:11I wanted my kids to have a father that's present.
08:14Every decision I've made was for them.
08:20And so after they were born, I was at the house every weekend.
08:26Hey.
08:28Hey.
08:30There was Heather, Cass, there to help me with the boys.
08:36There was no arguing.
08:38There were no fights.
08:40And the boys had everything they needed.
08:43But I knew the truth.
08:45Hey.
08:48When it comes to Stefan, you're basically his property.
08:52He thinks he's entitled to our bodies.
09:02Hi, everybody.
09:03My name is Savi.
09:04I want everyone to know this is the truth.
09:07This is nothing but the truth.
09:11Me and my friend, Ali, visited in April of 2021.
09:16Her and I had the same experience.
09:19Stefan was playing with her stomachs, touching my butt.
09:24I was supposed to stay for two weeks, but I could not stomach being there.
09:28And I left four days early.
09:29We can all agree that that's...
09:31We get in contact with Kimmy.
09:32We say, here's our story.
09:34And she's like, y'all are 100% valid.
09:38This is insane.
09:39And then I was like, well, now, now I have to talk.
09:43I made videos breaking down everything that happened at the house.
09:47If the same thing happened to you in a workplace, what would it be called?
09:51Crickets.
09:52Sexual assault.
09:53I had no idea that it was going to blow up in my face.
09:59The girls had gone public.
10:01And then Kimmy, aka Piggy Stardust, became the megaphone for them.
10:06And it was going viral.
10:09You touched me without permission.
10:12You touched anyone without permission.
10:15That is assault.
10:16I got a call from Stefan saying, you need to get here now.
10:19What the do I do?
10:22This could...
10:24I'm not going to say wreck your life, but it could your life for a while.
10:28It can.
10:30He had Ivy there.
10:32He had me there.
10:33He had basically rallied the troops behind him.
10:37You need to go after this girl.
10:39Loyalty is key.
10:40My job was to protect Stefan at all costs.
10:47In that moment, I didn't truly feel that I was doing anything wrong.
11:05Plus-size girls are raised to be as small as possible.
11:10There was a lot of times I didn't get to speak out.
11:13And as an adult, there's more times where I'm like, I have to speak out.
11:19I knew when I made the decision to come out against Stefan that it was going to be war.
11:30It was the beginning of probably the most chaotic six months of my life.
11:39You're going to need a lot more toilet paper for the shitstorm that's about to hit you.
11:44Kimmy's videos really were a problem for Stefan.
11:48So I reached out to her.
11:50I mean, what do I have to lose, right?
11:52Maybe I can persuade her to take the videos down.
11:56We should be loud and speak up for those victims.
12:00We shouldn't take the videos down.
12:03Over 300 videos were made.
12:05Three, four, five videos a day sometimes.
12:07And it just kept going.
12:09He's not a good guy.
12:11I was pissed.
12:12And it kept getting worse.
12:13And it kept getting worse.
12:18My name is Kenita Allen.
12:20I lived with Stefan for about nine months.
12:23I hate you so much.
12:28I was literally right there when the whole thing happened.
12:31With Allie and Savvy, we were very affectionate with each other, very touchy-feely.
12:37All of us had been.
12:38And she said that was sexual assault.
12:42Face value.
12:43It's sexual assault.
12:46Cass and I are both pissed because we had both been sexually assaulted before.
12:49Like, we'd both been raped.
12:51She didn't believe that what happened with Allie and Savvy was sexual assault
12:57in comparison to what had happened to her.
13:00These girls are making a mockery out of something that is so triggering.
13:04I had already been in paradise for a couple weeks when Piggy started posting these videos.
13:11And that was the first time I saw Cass, like, sob.
13:14She had friends texting her saying that if she was going to keep being with Stefan, then they didn't want
13:23to be her friend anymore.
13:24The only reason I'm sitting here next to Stefan speaking up for him and against these ridiculous allegations is because
13:30I was here.
13:32It wasn't, it wasn't an assault.
13:36She cared for him deeply and it definitely took its toll on her.
13:43Cass doesn't care about body positivity.
13:45She cares about herself, her money, and her fame.
13:50Cass was attacked and harassed by Piggy.
13:54Cass and I were just trying to navigate the rough waters of this relentless, never-ending shitstorm.
14:02Piggy stardust is basically, like, comparing me to Epstein or to Adolf Hitler.
14:07Like, you know, what the f*** is wrong with her?
14:15I've never really been able to present all the evidence that I have that basically shows that most of the
14:23allegations are completely fabricated.
14:26All these messages, Savic sending me nudity, there was three months of hardcore flirting and naked video chats and all
14:34sorts of stuff leading up to this.
14:36Because of the conversations and the excessive flirting that they had had, Stefan took that as consent.
14:47At the time, I could see Stefan's position.
14:53He said, yes, he did touch her.
14:54He didn't realize it was a problem.
14:59So, these are literally just, like, you know, recordings that I had saved from the time that these people were
15:05here.
15:06Like, look, people are piled on top of each other, touching each other.
15:12The girls were all like, hey, slap the butt and say, oh, nice booty.
15:17Like this one here.
15:22Right there.
15:23Savvy just decides, out of the blue, to just slap Cass.
15:29Why wasn't that a problem?
15:32It really brought up the question of consent.
15:36Cass was like, oh, well, then does that mean that they assaulted me when they smacked my ass in the
15:41kitchen?
15:44Why are you singling me out?
15:45Because I'm the only guy?
15:46Well, no, I haven't even heard of it yet.
15:48I don't know why.
15:50Come on.
15:51I ended up on a FaceTime call with the two girls that were affected.
15:55I apologize.
15:56If it made you uncomfortable, like, I'm terribly sorry for that.
15:58That was absolutely not the intention.
16:01Both girls at the end said, okay, you know, we're good.
16:05Do you feel, do you feel, do you feel any better after that?
16:08Oh, I feel better.
16:09I mean, that's good to hear.
16:12Maybe I should have not touched these girls or whatever.
16:14At the end of the day, I would not consider that sexual assault.
16:19In your mind, what are you apologizing for?
16:22I honestly, like, I didn't even quite know because my mind was so blown.
16:30The apologies had happened.
16:32I thought everything was kind of squared away.
16:34It was Piggy who kept putting fuel in the fire.
16:36And I am done being nice.
16:39Done.
16:40Be afraid.
16:42She built a whole hate army that kept coming after me.
16:46I want to f***ing torture him.
16:48Like, come here, Stefan.
16:49Hit me up.
16:51These, like, brainless zombies come on my channel and post my full address.
16:59Stefan was getting death threats and getting harassed daily.
17:02It was terrifying because it wasn't just, like, my safety.
17:06It was also the safety of all my friends at Paradise, too.
17:13There was a point that Stefan climbed on my lap and wrapped his arms around me and said,
17:21If I have ever done anything to make you feel uncomfortable, I am so sorry and started sobbing.
17:29How can you not want to protect that?
17:38There was a sad tension in the house for a long time.
17:44And in my head, I had overstayed my welcome to that point.
17:50So I had to go.
17:54The drive home felt a little just kind of solemn and strange.
18:01I was just living for, like, six weeks in a house with only plus-sized women.
18:05And now I have to go back into the real world.
18:09But because of how online the house is, there was a part of me that felt like I was still
18:13there.
18:14And I turn on TikTok, and the first thing that shows up is the Paradise Live.
18:17I want to be left alone.
18:19I want to have fun with my friends.
18:23I honestly had no idea what to do.
18:28The friends around me all came to me and said, your only way out is legal.
18:32Get a lawyer.
18:33Okay, let's file a suit for slander and defamation.
18:39It was the 5th of July.
18:41I opened my bedroom door, and I see a big packet.
18:46I pick it up, and it says, I've been served.
18:52I'm a broke college student.
18:55I ain't got no money.
18:56And I'm being sued by a millionaire.
19:00So I got officially served.
19:02I did pick up the papers.
19:05So he sued myself, Savvy, Allie, and I was like, let's fight this.
19:10Let's go.
19:11I call a lawyer.
19:13He's like, I can file an anti-slap.
19:17There's two criteria that you have to meet.
19:18You have to believe that what you're saying is true, and you have to be trying to protect the public.
19:24I never thought I was going to be sued for this.
19:28You're doubting yourself.
19:30Still to this day, I find myself like, was it really sexual assault?
19:35Was I right to even call it that?
19:37Because a lot of people were telling me that it wasn't.
19:40Would you take it back if you could?
19:43No.
19:43I would not take it back.
19:46The only thing we can do is to continue to spread the word so that every person we reach knows
19:52what exactly they might be getting into if they go to his community.
19:57There were a lot of women coming out in my comments regarding the red flags they had seen.
20:03There is so much more that people don't realize that this man has been able to do.
20:14To me, this is a cult.
20:17He puts himself in a position of power, creating a situation where these people will do anything for the leader.
20:24You have to prove yourself to him.
20:26This is a case of, I consented and now I regret it, so I'm going to call a cult because
20:31I regret it.
20:32She literally said...
20:32Ivy was one of those ones who was battling me at the beginning.
20:37Anyone who goes against Paradise would become the enemy.
20:40It makes me laugh.
20:42We, as his inner friend group, were pressured and asked to make videos defending him.
20:49It absolutely felt like he wore us as a shield.
20:52Listen, man, these aren't thunder thighs. These are thunderstorm thighs.
20:57Anytime I was in the house, he would ask if I wanted to have sex.
21:05There was one instance where he very sneakily put something inside me.
21:14I didn't know what it was, but I was like, okay, it's probably just lube or something.
21:20He would say, oh, it's just a kitty treat. It's okay.
21:22Kitty, it's Stefan's creepy, weird way of talking about a woman's vagina.
21:28But I got itchy, and I went to urgent care, and they were like, yeah, you're just having an allergic
21:34reaction.
21:36Ivy came to me and said she had a reaction to something.
21:40I knew what it was.
21:42A kitty treat is basically a Tamplon applicator with spermicide inside of it.
21:48I had no idea that he was using it on people, and they had no idea what it actually was.
21:58It's really gross.
22:00Like, I deserve so much more than that.
22:03And to have somebody do something to me that I don't know about without even asking is deplorable.
22:12To my best knowledge, I educated everybody on these.
22:16And I would never, I would have never just, like, put something in somebody without even, like, you know, how?
22:24I mean, that would have been a problem.
22:27Sorry for laughing about that.
22:29That would have been a problem.
22:35Ivy didn't really want to come to the house anymore.
22:45When Ivy came forward regarding her story, this was the first time, really, that someone was like, I was against
22:53you, but now I'm with you.
22:56We're looking close to 20 different women who have come actively forward.
23:01You have people who talk about the mental abuse.
23:04There's women who say that they were non-consensually touched or pressured to sleep with Stefan,
23:11or who have been so drunk that they couldn't give consent.
23:15This is a man who is a predator.
23:21I don't know how to start.
23:22I never know how to start.
23:25How do you, um,
23:29how do you publicly
23:32become a victim?
23:36My name is Alex,
23:37and I go by Porkchop.
23:40I'm 32 years old,
23:42and I was at Paradise for
23:44eight weeks.
23:45Porkchop looking good in her merma-
23:47mermaid.
23:48Get up.
23:51In my life, there are many times that I just feel very desperate.
23:55Desperate for a good friend, somebody who's, like, truly there.
23:59I suffer bad from depression and crippling ADHD.
24:04Being a part of his community online,
24:08Stefan, he was, like, shouting from the rooftops,
24:10come into the safe space.
24:12Oh, we would love to have you here, Porkchop.
24:16When I went to Paradise,
24:18walking into his house was just like I was walking through the screen of the computer.
24:23I gave him a big hug, a big squeeze,
24:25and then immediately after we hugged,
24:28it got handsy, it got touchy, it got uncomfortable.
24:31Look, Lee Bakke, the little meat were here.
24:33Little belly meat.
24:36I think it was on the third night that I was there.
24:42I was drinking that night and said,
24:48all right, time to get into the hot tub.
24:55I was, at this point, drunk.
24:58One of the women there, she was like,
25:01I don't know, I think you're too drunk to get into the hot tub.
25:05Are you sure you want to get into the hot tub?
25:09And I was like, uh, yeah, I'm sure.
25:12I just didn't know that getting into the hot tub meant to have sex.
25:20Then Stefan comes and joins.
25:23All three of us got into the hot tub.
25:27And they actually both physically take my bathing suit off at the same time.
25:31I just kind of felt like I was just being, like, ripped apart.
25:36Then she just leaves, and Stefan proceeded to have sex with me.
25:44I didn't stop him, say anything, or do anything.
25:54When I woke up the next day, I didn't know how to feel.
25:59I was taken advantage of, but I didn't wake up thinking I was assaulted.
26:04And then my mental health slowly declined over the next couple weeks.
26:12I remember saying, like, why am I here?
26:16It came to a point where I experienced a full-blown panic attack,
26:23where I was just sobbing.
26:26And then eventually, Stefan, he grabbed my hand and pulled it close to him.
26:34He led me to the pool, to where then he addressed me and everything
26:40and had sex with me in the pool.
26:45I was not thinking.
26:47I couldn't think.
26:48I didn't have room to think.
26:50For some reason, I just felt paralyzed.
26:56I walked away from that feeling attacked.
27:10When I came home, I felt defeated.
27:15I wanted to never see him again, never have to deal with him again.
27:22And then when he was trying to sue the girls,
27:26I did see an opportunity to prove that what they are saying is true.
27:32Over the week, we filed a new response to our anti-slap motion.
27:38In that document is a new witness statement.
27:44When she explained what had happened, I was enraged.
27:50I was just sick to my stomach.
27:55So this is Alex's statement.
28:00I was crying with tears streaming down my face.
28:03Then Wilhelmi approached me and said,
28:05you know what would make you feel better, Porky?
28:07If we in the hot tub.
28:11Porky was sitting outside with me and saying,
28:13why are you not interested in me?
28:15Why don't you want to me?
28:16Why don't you want to hook up with me?
28:18Am I not good enough?
28:19She's begging for it.
28:21And now she's going on record in a court document saying I assaulted her.
28:25That's like, hello?
28:34So Porkchop, I feel like I didn't do anything wrong.
28:38She gave consent.
28:40She gave explicit consent.
28:42She confirmed multiple times that she's not drunk.
28:45At what point do you take that person's word to say like,
28:49she's an adult, she is verbally agreeing to this.
28:51Like it couldn't have been more verbally, explicitly, violently consensual than that.
29:00And then I have a text message from a mutual friend that was here.
29:05And she says, when you two hooked up,
29:07she told me about it the next day and was all giddy about it.
29:11Funny how the story changed.
29:16When she says that I seemed giddy that morning, I was trying to feel normal.
29:22I wanted to fix it.
29:25Four years later, I am deathly afraid of speaking against him.
29:30But I want the truth to be out there.
29:33The consensual sex takes two people.
29:38And this man watched me frozen, not responding.
29:43Or he was getting what he wanted in silence.
29:46He thought that was a good time.
29:49You go into that environment, you're coming out hurt.
29:57As more allegations came out, he was so hyper-focused that he couldn't do anything except for talk about it.
30:06Every person that came in the house, he started from the beginning and had to tell them the entire story.
30:11I gently, like, tap her booty, like, in a nice, caring way, and then I walk away.
30:18The more that Stefan talked about it, the harder it became for Cass, rehashing her own trauma over and over.
30:28Stefan's relationship with Cass was incredibly toxic.
30:31And I think that he encouraged her and enabled her,
30:38especially during all the allegations, to do a lot of things that were not healthy for her.
30:46I did not know until I stayed at the house.
30:50But I found out that Cass was on a lot of dating and fetish apps
30:55that were bringing in viewership to paradise.
31:02She was filming herself having sex with people.
31:07Some of it was Stefan.
31:09Sometimes it was her having sex with other people.
31:13People would fly in to come meet her, to lay on them.
31:18It's literally, they just like the feeling of, like, weight on them.
31:22A squashing session is where somebody will lay down
31:27and you're laying completely on top of them
31:29to make them feel like they're being suffocated by somebody who's fat.
31:35Stefan used to take a cut from payments for people who did squashing sessions
31:41while they're staying with him at Paradise.
31:45Cass was also making her own content on these fetish websites, dating websites.
31:51A big one of these is Phoebe.
31:54Cass, among some of the other women, they would post videos of themselves eating.
31:59Say if a man sent you $50 and said,
32:02hey, spend this money at the Chinese restaurant down the street
32:05and send me a video of you eating it,
32:07then I'll send you $50 more.
32:12You don't notice they wait, Kate,
32:14until it's too late.
32:17For Stefan,
32:19even if you're 500 pounds,
32:21you're still not big enough for him.
32:25And he'll tell you that.
32:27The amount of times he's told me,
32:28like, you're so tiny, you should eat more.
32:32And you think it's so normal
32:34because everybody else around you is that big.
32:38For some of the individuals that are into feeding and feederism,
32:42it really is about that power play
32:44and that control of another and control of their body.
32:48On Phoebe, there's levels of extremism.
32:52Feeders can write out, like,
32:53their own little role plays and desires.
32:57Being fed to the last breath,
32:59the getting to 1,000 pounds.
33:02For some, it is a desire
33:05to get them in that bed so they never get out.
33:08Death feederism is the concept
33:10of feeding someone to the point that they die.
33:20Back at home in New Orleans,
33:23I could see what was happening.
33:26Cass went from that really bubbly girl
33:28to someone who was just really
33:30taken into a dark space.
33:33Cass had gained a lot of weight.
33:36She was doing more content of eating
33:39or weighing herself.
33:42I don't think Cass would have engaged on feederism
33:45at the level she did
33:47unless it was for Stefan.
33:50All I know is that when Cass walked into my life,
33:53she was a confident big girl
33:56that was, like, ready to show herself to the world.
33:59She did it at Paradise.
34:01She never intentionally gained any weight at the house.
34:06They want to make me look like an abuser
34:08when in reality I'm just a fat admirer.
34:11So he says his body type is
34:14a woman over 500 pounds,
34:16like, six feet.
34:17Like, that's his preference.
34:19But active.
34:20Which means that
34:22when they stop being active,
34:25he kind of loses interest.
34:28Over 500 pounds.
34:31There's not many people that are extremely active,
34:33except for younger women.
34:36She said, like,
34:37I can't be in public anymore.
34:39I can't make any more videos.
34:42That's really kind of
34:43when their relationship started to change.
34:47Was Cass replaceable?
34:50Unfortunately, yes.
34:53I think that ultimately
34:54everybody was replaceable to him.
34:57When Cass had her 27th birthday,
35:00he did tell her that she was getting old for him.
35:10I was in New York,
35:11and Cass was calling me all the time,
35:14having almost panic attacks and everything.
35:17She was getting more and more depressed.
35:21I feel like,
35:22I'm sure there's a lot of people out there
35:24that are in the same place right now as I am.
35:30I told him,
35:32I need you
35:34to please
35:35be, you know,
35:37more gentle with her
35:38and, like, have patience
35:39because
35:39I can see her mental health declining.
35:48So, I was home,
35:50and I received a text from Cass
35:54saying,
35:55I love you
35:55and I'm sorry.
35:57And as soon as I read it,
35:59I knew what it was.
36:00I knew that it was,
36:02you know,
36:03a goodbye, basically.
36:05I texted Stefan right away.
36:08And I called K-Bug,
36:11and I told her,
36:12go immediately
36:12to Cass's room.
36:14Please check on her.
36:17Stefan goes running upstairs
36:18all of a sudden,
36:19tells me to come up,
36:20and when I saw her,
36:23she was on the bed
36:25completely unresponsive.
36:48K-Bug and I
36:49were both in the bedroom
36:50with her laying on my bed,
36:52and we were like,
36:52Cass, wake up.
36:54She had taken
36:54in a bunch of Benadryl
36:57and a bunch of Valium.
37:00Stefan was just panicking.
37:01He didn't know what to do.
37:03I was on the phone with them.
37:04I was like,
37:05you're going to need
37:05a lot of people.
37:06She's big.
37:07She's over 500.
37:08We're sending a bariatric unit
37:10to be able to handle her size.
37:12Okay.
37:15K-Bug had called me.
37:17She tells me that
37:19Cass is in the hospital
37:21because she tried
37:21to take her own life.
37:24And I just break down.
37:29People were
37:30gawking left and right.
37:32She deserved better.
37:35It was a complete joke.
37:38She was back in the house
37:40the next day.
37:42And I knew because
37:45Stefan sent a selfie
37:47of him in the couch
37:48with Cass sleeping.
37:52I told him, like,
37:53I told you
37:54this was going to happen.
37:59Everything in that moment
38:00was so emotionally charged.
38:02Whether it was
38:03a video against Stefan,
38:04whether it was
38:05a video against Cass.
38:07Cass can pretend
38:08all she wants,
38:09that she's a positive person
38:10for the plus-size community.
38:11The whole situation
38:13basically put her
38:14in fight or flight
38:16constantly.
38:19Cass and I
38:20split
38:21and she moved out.
38:23She actually just said,
38:24like,
38:24I can't,
38:25I don't want to be
38:26on your lives anymore.
38:26I don't want to be
38:27in content.
38:28I don't want to be
38:29I need to,
38:30I need to be away
38:31from this.
38:33I just wanted to come
38:34on here and tell y'all,
38:35like,
38:36I am no longer
38:37affiliated with Paradise
38:39or anything like that.
38:42We're all moving on.
38:44Thanks.
38:51She stayed with me
38:52for a couple months,
38:55but she kind of
38:56had a hard time,
38:56like,
38:57doing her own thing.
38:59You're such a fatty.
39:01Yes.
39:02The whole time
39:03she was in my house,
39:04like,
39:04Stefan and her
39:05didn't stop talking.
39:07It was very frustrating
39:08and we kind of
39:09broke off the friendship.
39:10I gotta be careful
39:11because I'm naked.
39:13Uh-oh.
39:14Not TikTok appropriate.
39:16Cass was never free.
39:20She never got out.
39:27I'm gonna be in Vegas
39:29at the end of January.
39:31Hopefully.
39:32She made plans
39:33to come visit.
39:34She showed up
39:35at my doorstep,
39:35like, January of 2024
39:37or something.
39:37Say hi, Cass.
39:39Hey y'all.
39:40But, like,
39:41she was 100 pounds heavier
39:42than she was
39:42when she left my house.
39:45What exactly happened
39:46in between,
39:47I did not have
39:48any control over
39:49and I don't know
39:51what happened.
39:54She was a lot bigger.
39:56A lot, lot bigger.
39:58She had a lot harder
39:59time walking around.
40:00The fact that she had
40:01to start using scooters,
40:04that's not the Cass I knew.
40:06She had, like,
40:07a little bit, like,
40:08some respiratory issues.
40:18My last text exchange
40:19with her was
40:20the last night,
40:20the night before.
40:22She had asked me
40:23if she could send
40:24clothes to my house
40:26and I had told her
40:27on June 26th,
40:28yeah, yeah, it's fine.
40:29Use my address.
40:30Send your clothes
40:31to my house.
40:37And I woke up
40:38June 27th
40:40to a text message.
40:43Cass passed away.
40:48I asked,
40:49is it really, like,
40:51is she really gone?
40:56She and I went through
40:59so much in the house
41:00together.
41:05I wholeheartedly believe
41:06had it not been
41:08for Stefan,
41:10had it not been
41:11for Paradise,
41:15Cass will be alive today.
41:33I have them.
41:34I have them.
41:35I have them.
