Sheline did take to social media recently to defend Mustafa against harsh fan critiques about her behavior in the villa.

He wrote in a TikTok story, “At the end of the day I hope everyone remembers we’re human. Her going on that show to find love, or whatever you think it was she’s doing, remember she’s still human, she has a daughter, and a life.”

He continued, “She’s maybe not doing a great job idk I don’t watch the show but I don’t like that I’m seeing so much negative s**t on my page or even clips of it about her…It’s not my job to police her or the people in my comments, but I will say what you guys do will affect her mental health and my daughter’s maybe in the future…“So I’m looking out for her in that aspect. Out of respect for our daughter.”
