She wrote, “Zero tolerance for violence,” and included an artwork that read, “Violence will not be tolerated.”
Some fans asked her to stand by her husband, but she did not take it easy.
In the message shared on her update, Daniella said people should not condole violence at any given point, and all abusers should be held accountable.
“Tragic how people watch abusers wreck a person’s life and will pray for the survivor’s healing but not hold the abuser accountable. There’s peace in knowing someone is responsible for hurting others. It’s not vengeance. It’s necessary, so they lose access to other people’s innocence,” the message read.
From this recent development, fans speculate that there could be trouble in paradise between Chameleone and Daniella.
