Haley Cavinder, one-half of the social media sensations, the Cavinder twins, recently opened up about having a “mental breakdown” after receiving negative comments about her relationship with Jake Ferguson. She mentioned that the comments about her appearance and her relationship affected her confidence and made her feel uncomfortable.
Haley Cavinder: I Was Called Ugly On The Internet
Neither Haley nor her twin sister Hanna, are struggling in the looks department. GQ recently questioned whether or not the Cavinder Twins have found extreme success on social media because of their looks.
That said, she claims that once news of her relationship with Dallas Cowboys Tight End Jake Ferguson got out to the public, the negative comments started rolling in.
Cavinder revealed the troubling response from online trolls, which she discovered while shopping with her Mom and sister. That’s when she “started looking at the comments about my face.”
Haley Cavinder told viewers that the nasty comments about her appearance brought her to a dark place.
“I’m a confident girl, but when people are saying stuff about you — if you have a boyfriend and someone is talking about you online with your boyfriend … like coming at your features. I’m like, ‘This is new,'” she explained.
“And, obviously, Jake is a great guy, but you don’t want to be called ugly on the internet 24/7 and your boyfriend sees it. That’s not going to make anyone feel cool,” Cavinder added. “So, I had a mental breakdown.”
Yea, we’re not sure this is worthy of calling ugly ’24/7.’ Or ever, for that matter.

The Cavinder Twins are social media sensations who have parlayed that online success by taking advantage of the new Name, Image, & Likeness (NIL) rules in the NCAA. Those rules allow student-athletes to sign endorsement deals.
Hanna and Haley Cavinder’s NIL deals, along with a new contract with the WWE, have earned the pair a pretty penny ($1.6 million annually according to one report).
The girls helped Miami reach its first Elite Eight at the 2023 NCAA tournament. Haley averaged 12.2 points and 4.9 rebounds for the squad her senior year while Hanna contributed 3.8 points and 1.6 assists per contest.
As for Ferguson, he might have been the only one who didn’t have an ugly performance for the Cowboys in their Wild Card round loss to the Green Bay Packers a couple of weeks ago.
He hauled in 10 catches for 93 yards and three touchdowns in the blowout loss.
