'I promise to do better': 'Love Is Blind' star Micah Lussier apologizes for 'mean girl' behavior but blames mental health issues

'Love Is Blind' star Micah Lussier said, 'To the viewers, I've hurt. I'm sorry I've triggered so many of you with my behavior'

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON: Love may be blind, but in this season of 'Love Is Blind', it's crystal clear that mean girl behavior won't be tolerated. As Season 4 premiered, viewers quickly noticed the names Micah Lussier and Irina Solomonova trending alongside the term "mean girls." And it's no wonder - the two cast members were caught cutting down their competition when they found themselves in pod love triangles. One particularly heart-wrenching moment was when Micah was chosen over Amber Wilder by Paul Peden. Amber returned to the women's living quarters devastated and in tears. Instead of showing compassion, Micah egged on Irina to eavesdrop on her conversation and they both laughed while Amber wept.

Unsurprisingly, 'Love Is Blind' fans have dubbed them the biggest villains of reality television. But it seems that Micah, is now owning up to her actions. In an attempt to atone, she took to social media to express remorse for her behavior. It remains to be seen if her apology will be enough to redeem her in the eyes of 'Love Is Blind' viewers. One thing is for sure, though -- this season is definitely not lacking in drama!

Micah apologizes for her 'emotional immaturity'

Micah Lussier is speaking out for the first time since the premiere of 'Love Is Blind' Season 4, and it's not to defend her actions. The reality star took to Instagram to post an apology note on her story, addressing the backlash she's received for her conduct on the show. "I have apologized privately to the people that were hurt on the show by my hands," Lussier wrote. "I would like to apologize publicly. An emotional immaturity was shown and I will grow from it." Lussier's behavior on the show has sparked outrage among viewers, with many accusing her and her BFF, Irina Solomonova, of bullying their fellow contestants. But Lussier isn't making excuses. "To the viewers, I've hurt. I'm sorry I've triggered so many of you with my behavior," she wrote. "Seeing that person on the screen would make me feel the same anger."

While 'Love Is Blind' is all about finding love without ever seeing your partner, it's also become known for the drama that occurred between some of the women in the pods that had nothing to do with dating. Lussier and Solomonova's "mean girl" actions have earned them the title of the biggest villains of reality TV, and they've even turned off comments on their personal Instagram accounts.

But Lussier is determined to take accountability for her actions, both publicly and privately. "I promise to do better in the future," she wrote. "As to my comments being off: I will turn them on in time. I am doing my best to protect my mental health (deserved or not). I hope you understand that I am taking accountability privately." It remains to be seen if Lussier's apology will be enough to redeem her in the eyes of 'Love Is Blind' viewers, but one thing is for sure - she's not shying away from the criticism.

Micah slammed for mean behavior

The fallout from Micah Lussier's behavior on 'Love Is Blind' Season 4 has been intense.

One fan tweeted, "They both have their IG comments limited even Irina’s business page has the comments limited. Them girls are some nasty spirits. Justice for Amber and Bliss", while another said, "Honestly! If they do that with cameras on them, imagine what they're like without cameras. Disgusting."

Very much high school energy! #LoveIsBlind #LoveisBlind4 #LoveIsBlindS4 MIND YA BUSINESS MICAH!!!" Another angry fan called out Micah's apology as fake. They said, "Micah from Love is Blind issued an apology….. Maybe her PR agent told her to, so she can get that blue check!!! The people: tell that Witch to save her apologies!!! We don’t want it", while another added, "Micah!! Are you joke?? Nobody didnt want you And you tried hard to return them..Stupid guys #LoveIsBlindS4"
