Is Gus Smyrnios on drugs? 'Floribama Shore' fans spread shocking rumors after he yells at pregnant Nilsa Prowant

The conversation started off well but spiraled out of control. He was yelling, slamming doors and rage-walking. He demanded an apology while he told her off for causing him to lose a girlfriend

Gus Smyrnios and Nilsa Prowant were in an on-off relationship for the last three seasons. They went from passionate lovers to bitter exes by the time Season 2 ended and went into the next season with a lot of baggage.

And from the looks of it, one of them has not quite moved past the issues — especially Gus, who got into a violent verbal fight with Nilsa at the ice-skating rink. But not before he admitted to Kirk Medas that he'd like to call Nilsa out on the cheating allegations made by her that have put him in a bad light. Kirk readily agreed to the idea but also reminded Gus that Nilsa was pregnant and so he needed to be careful about how he approached the situation.

The conversation started off well but spiraled out of control quickly. He was yelling, slamming doors and rage-walking. He demanded an apology while he told her off for causing him to lose a girlfriend. Nilsa was surprised and so were Candace Rice and Aimee Hall because this was unnecessary stress for a woman who was pregnant for a few weeks now.

What got Gus riled up so bad? Last season Nilsa knew Gus was dating Lisa Burns at the time and from what he seems to think, she had little respect for it. MTV aired old footage of her flipping the finger from behind the table while Gus spoke on the phone with his girl.

Also, there were rumors that he had cheated on Lisa, which Jeremiah Buoni confirmed because he was letting strangers take body shots off of it. So Nilsa is not really incorrect or wrong in discussing her and Gus ending up in the same bed.  



 

"Is Gus an actual fucking psychopath?! At the ice skating rink when he's freaking tf out, he says Nilsa said she didn't owe him an apology. UM THAT IS NOT EVEN WTF SHE SAID. She said she had already apologized for it. Gus is such a douche. Thank you for coming to my TED talk," a fan commented on a Reddit thread. Another echoed: "Misplaced anger about the baby mixed with unchecked psychosis + alcohol."

"Maybe they’ve started the same drug habit together or something. Not to start a rumor. But that wouldn’t be uncommon. Who knows," a user wrote in reference to how Kirk sided with Gus. "Does Gus have a personality disorder/bi polar?" one spoke for many fans who seem to be concerned about Gus's mental health.

"Yeahhh something is going on with his mental state. His thought processes and emotional reactions are not normal." "Gus clearly has a history of trauma and PTSD. Therapy helps not reality TV #MTVFloribamaShore," a viewer tweeted.

"Any guesses as to what drugs Gus is on...?" a user pointed out, to which another responded: "Adderall. He’s more intense than usual, big ass pupils, talking nonstop."
