The 19-year-old TikTok sensation Zoe Laverne, who had previously denied having any sort of relationship with a minor fan, has now accepted that she kissed the 13-year-old Connor and revealed that the two "just ended up catching feelings for each other." Laverne issued an apology statement through a livestream on Instagram. She says, “I didn’t groom Connor, I wouldn’t do that. He’s a kid and I’m aware of that. It just happened. We both were in a dark place when we first became friends and we both just ended up catching feelings for each other. And friends do that, they catch feelings for each other. That’s not a bad thing. Yes, the age is a bad thing. Yes, it’s wrong. Yes, it’s not good. We both realized that and we stopped."

Meanwhile, Connor went live on Instagram to address Laverne's video and told his fans that she didn't "rape" him. He further states in his video that they were "more than friends" and both realized it was "wrong". According to reports, before addressing her fans through her Instagram story, Laverne wrote on Instagram about informing Connor's mother kissing her son. She wrote, "before anything was leaked I did tell his mom we kissed. She wasn't happy obviously but she understood that we are both teenagers and that feelings can be caught."
