Falynn Guobadia Claims To Be Bullied By Michael Costello
In recent days, several celebrities have been coming forward more freely to share some of their past traumatic experience. Likely, the model Falynn Guobadia also took to her Instagram page to share that Michael Costello treated her unkindly in the past and labeled it a traumatic experience.
In her Instagram stories, Falynn wrote that she had the same experience with Michael, like with singer Leona Lewis as they both had to deal with their insecurities caused by the encounter with Michael.

She detailed the incident that she went to audition for the designer’s LA Fashion Week show. Michael was in attendance and complimented Falynn on her walk and her beauty. She was even sent an email that detailed what items she needed to purchase, but things quickly left.
When she arrived the next day to practice, Michael and his sister pretty much gave her the cold shoulder. And the designer dismissed her in front of all the models and his team, claiming that she was no longer needed. That is when Falynn decided not to audition to model again.
“Because of this traumatic experience, unfortunately, it was the end of my pursuit as a runway model,” Falynn wrote on Instagram stories.
Since the incident was shared, many fans and other social media users have called out to Michael for his rude behavior. Though this was the truth or not, the damage has already seemed to be done to him as many believe this story.

Previous Married Life With Simon Guobadia And Baby Father
Falynn Guobadia was previously in a married life with Simon Guobadia. The pair married in 2019 and announced their divorce on April 22, 2021.
Falynn and Simon, who both had children from previous relationships, shared a blended family of eight children between them. But they didn’t welcome any children together during their union as a couple.
Falynn’s eldest son is Troy, currently 14 years old, and celebrated his birthday in December 2020. She gave birth to him at the age of 17. Her other son is called Liam; however, it is not known what the name of her third child is called. They come from previous relationships.
In early May of 2021, Falynn publicly addressed her estranged husband’s new relationship. Simon announced his engagement to ex-Falynn’s co-star, Porsha Williams. According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, he and Falynn had yet to finalize their divorce, though they settled previously.

“I want to thank everyone for reaching out to me and offering their love and support,” Falynn said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE at the time. “At this time, I am focusing on finalizing my divorce and healing. Sending positivity to all of you.”
Earlier this month, the drama between Falynn and Simon intensified after news broke last months that Simon got engaged to co-star from RHOA, Porsha Williams. Simon is now accusing Falynn of cheating on him after sharing a preview of her upcoming tell-all interview.
Falynn took to her Instagram page to share a preview of her interview with Adam Newell. Simon took to his own Instagram afterward to slam the interview and accused Falynn of cheating on him with another man. Falynn then seemingly hit back with a post on her Instagram stories about people with a narcissistic personality disorder.
The pair announced their split on April 22 of 2021, on their respective social media pages. “After two years of marriage and 5 years of friendship, Simon and I have made the difficult decision to go our separate ways,” Falynn wrote on her Instagram Story at the time.
“We are deeply thankful for the impact we have made in each other’s lives, as well as the bonds formed with each other’s children. This mutual decision was not made lightly,” she continued. “And despite our current willingness to be transparent, we only ask our friends and supporters to be respectful of our privacy as our family gets through this challenging period.”
She concluded by thanking her supporters “who have shown a great deal of love for our family,” adding: “You all do not go unnoticed.”
Their split rumors surfaced back in the March of 2021 when the pair seemingly unfollowed each other on Instagram. After this rumor, Falynn spoke to 'The Jasmine Brand,' denying any separation between them. But now, it’s clear that they were on the edge of ending their marriage and have gone their separate ways.
