Amanda Seales recently discussed her tumultuous relationship with her former “Insecure” co-star, Issa Rae, on the “Club Shay Shay” podcast. Seales recounted a feud that began when Rae’s publicist allegedly showed animosity towards her at a party in 2018. Seales claimed she was later denied entry to a subsequent event and escorted out by security at the behest of the same publicist, Vanessa Anderson. Despite reaching out to Rae for help, Seales felt unsupported by her co-star throughout the ordeal. She also hinted that rumors of her poor behavior on set were untrue, given the power dynamic between her and Rae. Seales expressed feeling alienated by the show’s production staff and ultimately stopped communicating with Rae towards the end of the series’ run. Despite continuing to protect Rae publicly, Seales revealed that she no longer felt it was her responsibility to do so, feeling hurt by the lack of support she received from her co-star. This situation highlights the complexities of personal relationships in the entertainment industry and the challenges that can arise when conflicts occur behind the scenes.
