'Ex on The Beach: Peak of Love': Fans call out Nicole Zanatta for bullying Laurel Stucky who was axed from show

Laurel Stucky and Nicole Zanatta's broken relationship is finally out of the picture with the former being axed from the show on the basis of castmates' votes.

Nicole Zanatta and Laurel Stucky are perfect examples of bitter exes and now, it's out in the open.

'Ex on The Beach: Peak of Love' took a terrible turn this week with Nicole and Laurel expressing their resentment towards each other in the most vocal way possible. Unfortunately, Laurel was iced by the cast, but there were events leading up to the elimination ceremony that pushed all of the wrong buttons, forcing her to walk out mid-taping. Their little chats snowballed into blame-game sessions, which only got worse with time. 

Nicole isn't the one to mince words, she says it like it is. But Laurel isn't ready for her truth. But, hard calls are taken and hearts are broken. Nicole clearly states that she wants Laurel out of the show because she brings out the worse in her and would like to stop talking to her. Even though this shocks Laurel, she says she'd like to discuss this issue at length with her.

"I don't want to play a cat-and-mouse game anymore. But, it's not you, it's me. And it's exhausting when I feel like I am talking to a wall and nothing gets through," Nicole said. As the castmates moved on with their day, the show introduced the exes and right after, Laurel broke down in Nicole's absence. She expressed her hurt and all the bottled-up feelings she had towards Nicole and her recent behavior towards her.

Even though her fellow contestants were ready to extend an olive branch, fans aren't. They weren't one bit pleased about Laurel giving Nicole the upper hand, allowing her to bully. 

"Nicole Zanatta seems to have all the emotional maturity of a dumpster fire. #ExOnTheBeach #ExOnThePEAK," a fan wrote, while another tweeted: "Nicole is such a toxic bully. #exonthebeach."

"Nicole is HOT GARBAGE. Laurel is right for not believing anything that comes out of her mouth. Hope Sydney is smart enough to do the same though I sadly doubt it. #ExOnThePEAK #eotb #exonthebeach," a viewer shared in response to Nicole's big act of asking forgiveness from Laurel right after she was nixed from the show. The timing was off because the damage was done and Laurel was in no mood to accept her apology. 

On Twitter, Laurel appeared more sure of her equation with Nicole when she wrote she wouldn't believe anything she'd ever say to her. "I feel free to be out of a bad situation & I thank MTV even though the hardest situation to be placed in-I'm thankful. I was so forgiving & listened to Nicoles lies when she would tell me she didnt do anything wrong. Now I know, & I wont ever believe anything she says ever again," the reality TV star posted.
