Josh Richards Asks Nessa Barrett and Jaden Hossler to Stop “Roping” Him In “For Clicks and Drama”
The drama between Josh Richards, Mads Lewis, Nessa Barrett, and Jaden Hossler is the TikTok tea that just won't cool off. As we entire week five of this saga, Josh is once again speaking out and making a plea, specifically to Jaden and Nessa, to put it to an end.
Josh took to Twitter on Wednesday to make a statement about the situation. He began by giving his support to the new couple. "I dated Ness for over a year and a half and I am grateful for the great memories we shared," he said. "I genuinely wish nothing but the best for Jaden and Nessa." Then, though, Josh asked that they stop including him in the narrative. "I’ve said this before and am saying it again, it’s well past time for them and others to stop roping me in for clicks and views."

He continued, saying, "The ludicrous conspiracies and false accusations against everyone involved need to stop. I’m tired of people spewing lies just to get a reaction from me. Don’t take my silence for weakness." Josh explained that he is putting his energy into his work right now. "I have no interest in high-school petty drama and...refuse to dignify blatantly disrespectful actions with a reaction."
I need to make sure have food on the table. It would be irresponsible of me not to focus on my amazing team that rely on me every day. That’s where my energy has been and that’s where I am going to keep it. I have no interest in high-school petty drama and...

That being said, Josh did admit that he feels "betrayed" and he has things to say about the situation, but it doesn't seem like he is going to talk about it anytime soon, if at all. "I am going to keep talking about financial literacy and shit that actually matters to my audience," he said.
refuse to dignify blatantly disrespectful actions with a reaction. I feel betrayed and I do have a lot to say, but I am choosing to channel that hurt and energy into my work. I am going to keep talking about financial literacy and shit that actually matters to my audience.

These tweets come just a few days after Nessa said that she was going to share her side of the story soon, once her EP drops. Mads, meanwhile, recently started selling merch inspired by the drama. Following his initial conversations about the drama on his podcast, BFFs, Josh has remained fairly quiet on the situation and it seems like we shouldn't expect that to change.
