When Fessler\u2019s red-carpet defense was shared via Threads the next day, Miller fired back with a pointed comment.<\/p>\n
\u201cLol, because they slept together too,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

In a statement shared via her Instagram Story, Jennifer wrote, \u201cIn all seriousness, and while I can\u2019t help but be a little flattered, it is not nice nor is it OK<\/span><\/a> to post something categorically untrue and defamatory on social media. Regardless of whatever rumors or apparent \u2018evidence\u2019 led you to that conclusion, that is the definition of libel.\u201d<\/p>\nShe added, \u201cIf it were true, I would have no recourse. Because it\u2019s a lie, this can get more complicated. Having said that, I hope we can rectify this. It\u2019s enough now.\u201d<\/p>\n
