Melissa Reeves, best known for her portrayal of Jennifer Horton on Days of Our Lives, is at the center of a social media firestorm after liking several controversial posts that criticized the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. The actress, who has been with the NBC soap for over three decades, is facing intense backlash not only from fans but also from her co-stars.
This incident has sparked heated debates about racism, personal beliefs, and the responsibility of public figures in today’s politically charged climate.
The controversy ignited when fans noticed that Reeves had “liked” a series of Instagram posts from right-wing commentator Candace Owens, a vocal critic of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Owens has frequently voiced her views that BLM has led to more harm than good, with one of her posts questioning the financial transparency of the organization. For many, this action by Reeves was seen as a direct endorsement of Owens' anti-BLM rhetoric.
The backlash was swift and unforgiving, with fans and co-stars alike voicing their disgust over the actress’ apparent support of these views.
