Jessica Mulroney's husband Ben Mulroney is leaving his hosting gig after the scandal. Ben has decided to stand by his wife.
Mulroney was made for the spotlight, especially when she became close with Meghan Markle. The aspiring actress met Markle when she was pre-royalty back in 2011, and the two have been besties ever since. The Canadian even was rumored to have picked out Markle’s wedding dress. Mulroney's children, Ivy, Brian, and John attended the royal wedding. Mulroney made a name for herself since she continuously stood up for her best friend when the Duchess received backlash for her undesirable decisions.
Toronto has been hit with some news regarding their favorite host, Ben. He announced on Monday via CTV’s Your Morning that he would be stepping down from his job role at etalk in hopes a non-white person would take his place. The appearance marks the first time Ben has made an appearance after his wife’s debacle on social media which cost her jobs. The famous host made it clear that he loved his wife, but it was not "his place" to speak for her. At the beginning of the broadcast, he made a point to explain to viewers that he and his wife were both committed to "doing the work" to learn more about racism and their "blind spots."
The I Do, Redo host's Instagram was blasted for "white privilege" recently thanks to a Canadian lifestyle blogger, Sasha Exeter, who called out Mulroney for her silence during the Black Lives Matter resurgence. In a video posted to Exeter’s Instagram, she told followers that she tried not to call anyone out directly. She holds on to that sentiment for a short minute, then reveals that a "very prominent Canadian" who she is friends with had recently been on the offensive regarding one of the Lifestyle Manager’s social media stories. Exeter went on to detail that Mulroney stated in writing that she had spoken to "companies and people" about the way Exeter had supposedly treated Mulroney "unfairly." Exeter said she felt threatened since most of her income comes from working with companies and brands.
While it may have been a noble sentiment for Ben many still feel that his wife was in the wrong for how she privately attacked Exeter. Mulroney’s once close friend, Markle, has recently made it very clear that she wants nothing more to do with the exiled Toronto socialite.
