Bobby Berk has shared a cryptic social media message as the rift between the ‘Queer Eye’ cast widens.
“Choosing peace comes with many farewells, but I will always choose peace,” Burke wrote on top of a video of herself walking down a snow-covered road in winter gear.
He added a red heart emoji to the sentiment and captioned the upload, “Hoping you all have a great weekend 🫶.”
The “Queer Eye” alum, who appeared on the show from 2018 to 2023, also appeared on her own HGTV show, “Junk or Jackpot?”
Burke’s former co-star Karamo Brown sparked rumors of a cast feud on Tuesday after he withdrew from several appearances on the talk show along with fellow Queer Eye cast members Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness, Antoni Porowski and Jeremiah Brent.
In a statement to Today with Jenna & Sheinelle, Brown wrote in part that she felt “mentally and emotionally abused for years” and that she missed the joint interview because her therapist told her to “protect myself and my peace.”
“CBS Morning” host Gayle King also read a letter from Brown during an interview she missed, explaining her decision to decline the appearance.
“I would like everyone to remember the main theme that I have been trying to teach them for the past 10 years: focusing on mental health, peace, and protecting them from people and the world that seek to destroy it. That is why I am unable to be present today,” it read.
Sources have since told TMZ that an incident occurred during filming, which led to Brown’s decision to decline the interview.
Brown’s mother was on set and overheard him talking about Karamo, the paper said, and informed Brown.
Brown has since unfollowed France, Van Ness and Porofsky on social media.
Burke previously shared an evasive message on Wednesday that read, “How’s everyone doing this week?!” — also supported Brown in the comment thread of a post shared Thursday.
“What was the storm that actually cleared your path?” Brown wrote alongside several portraits of herself, to which Burke responded, “🫶🏼♥️.”
Representatives for Mr. Brown, Mr. Burke, Mr. France, Mr. Porowski and Mr. Van Ness did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment Friday.
After leaving Queer Eye in 2023, Burke claimed that his conflict with Van Ness had “very little” to do with his departure.
“There was a situation. It was between Tan and I and it had nothing to do with the show,” Burke said in a 2024 Vanity Fair interview.
He added, “It was personal and not romantic. Let me make that clear.”
Ms Burke said that despite the incident, “I could have predicted that in six months or a year, Tan and I would be doing well in each other’s homes.”
