African-Australian model Nikki Thot has strongly countered allegations of infidelity levelled against her by her ex-husband, Jamie Perkins.
The mother-of-two and sister of supermodel Duckie Thot, categorically denied Perkins’ claims she had an affair with an ex-boyfriend during their marriage and accused the YouTuber of orchestrating a malicious smear campaign.
“I never cheated on Jamie and he knows that, but he was quick to run a smear campaign through the community about why we broke up,” Thot wrote in a lengthy Instagram post on Thursday.
She also alluded to there being emotional abuse throughout their six-year marriage.
“I felt something wasn’t right in my marriage but I didn’t know what I was experiencing,” she shared.
“Then in June 2019 I came across the podcast “Love and Abuse” where I discovered what emotional abuse was.”
Her posts come one week after Perkins, 40, release a bombshell YouTube video in which he accused the mother of his two children of gaslighting, coercive control and violence.
However, the clip has since been deleted from the platform and Thot, 33, has denied all of the allegations.
“Jamie removed the video simply because he saw that people weren’t buying this story,” she wrote.
The Sudanese beauty went on to allege she was fat-shamed by her then husband three weeks after giving birth.
“When the cameras were rolling, Jamie was very sweet to me, but behind the lens he was highly critical,” she said.
The interracial couple first rose to social media fame in 2013 when their wedding video went viral, and they launched a joint YouTube channel which amassed more than one million followers.
However in 2019 they announced their split and while Thot claims Perkins tried to salvage the marriage the following year, she has since moved on and is happier than ever.
“I have moved on with my life. I’m in a loving, genuine relationship and I’m finally at peace,” she wrote.
