The public outcry surrounding this incident was certainly the impetus for the firing, but the fact of the matter is that Natalia and Willy have been a liability for the show since before any of this drama began. Wasn't it just a few weeks ago that producers had to step in and issue an apology on the couple's behalf with regard to a conflict Willy had with a random customer at a bakery? Didn't he label the woman involved a cunt? Didn't Natalia later release a tweet saying the apology was ********? That entire controversy seems to have been buried in the wake of this nightmare, but why on Earth would XFNZ producers keep these two around after that sort of behavior? Let's hope the label follows suit.
They don't know how to treat people with respect. They have no concept of decency. That's why they can't have nice things.
And Natalia ain't slick enough to engineer an "exit". This may have been a premeditated attempt to boost her profile, but I doubt she intended to lose her only reliable paycheck. Egg on her fuzzy face.
