Who is Naomi Liberty? 'The Bachelorette' alum Devin Strader faces bullying allegations from former classmate
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Bachelorette' alum Devin Strader sparked controversy and backlash after he ditched Jenn Tran during the ABC show finale. However, Devin's high school classmates have since shared a series of social media videos revealing his true behavior. Among them, classmate Naomi Liberty has recently come forward with sharp criticism of Devin.
Naomi, originally from Screwston, Texas, is a proud Latina and a self-proclaimed 'girl’s girl' with a love for parties. Recently, she took to TikTok to share her experience as a victim of Devin's bullying. Naomi claimed that Devin frequently mocked her appearance, even calling her 'ugly.' She also revealed that she was dealing with Child Protective Services due to her parent's physical and emotional abuse and that she self-harmed as a way to cope with the trauma. However, when Devin learned about Naomi's struggles, he responded by suggesting she should harm herself rather than offer support. She also accused Devin of throwing school materials, such as paper balls, at her and mocking her dyslexic friend. She claimed that he has never been respectful of women.
