Once Mia’s videos went viral, other people started chiming in to say that there was a "reason" Skai might have an issue with Jodie. According to comments, that reason has to do with Skai's ex-boyfriend Julez Smith, Solange Knowles's son.

See, Skai and Julez were rumored to be dating for quite some time. However, Madame Noire reports that he is now rumored to be dating Jodie. So naturally, many people initially believed that there was some truth to the rumors that Skai had been bullying Jodie.

And when Jordyn spoke out against the person who has been bullying her sister, the situation hit a new level, as many people thought she was referencing Skai.

In an Instagram Live, Jordyn made it very clear that she wouldn't hesitate to take action against the specific individual.

She continued, "So keep it up and it’s going to be a problem because I do not mess with people messing with my family, especially when you’re way older than her. And don’t make me make it public because I will. And I’m not playing at all. So, just saying, keep it going.”

Skai has been adamant that she and Jodie are good with each other.

Since the situation has caused many people online to berate Skai and call her a bully, the actress wasted no time in clearing the air.

In an Instagram Story, Skai quickly stated that she and Jodie had never had any problems with one another.

Things have also taken a turn with Skai’s mom, Kiya Cole, defending her daughter. 

In her Instagram Story, Kiya addressed Jordyn’s video and stated that Skai has only ever said positive things about Jodie. She also stated that her family and the Woods family have known each other for years, so there is no reason for Skai to ever have had an issue with Jodie.

“Like I said, as far as I know I’ve never heard Skai say anything negative to me about Jodie," Kiya shared, "and we talk about everything okay?” “Yes, I’m a mother. But I’m also her best friend. And no, she does not have an older sister to take up for her and defend her but she shouldn’t need to because she’s almost 19. But I’m going to speak up and say it’s lies, OK?”

While it seems that things are beginning to calm down, many fans are still convinced that Skai is a mean girl. People have been sounding off on social media about the incident and it looks like her reputation may be tarnished.

However, with so many things going on in the celebrity world, it’s only a matter of time before this situation becomes a distant memory.
