Lilly Gaddis, a self-proclaimed “trad-wife” influencer, is facing significant backlash after a video surfaced of her using racist and offensive language while cooking on TikTok.

In the video, Gaddis, wearing an apron and preparing food, expressed disdain towards married people in her circle, stating, “Everybody I know who’s married right now, they’re married to broke a– n—–.” Despite deleting the video after it went viral, it continues to circulate online through reposts on platforms like X (formerly Twitter).

Following the initial backlash, Gaddis posted a response video addressing the controversy. Instead of offering an apology, she further inflamed tensions by dismissing concerns from “members of a certain community” and stated that she “couldn’t find to care” about their reactions. Her response video, which featured a clip of Andrew Breitbart saying “War,” has garnered equal backlash.

The reaction on social media has been swift and widespread, with many users calling for her to be fired. Gaddis later confirmed on X that she had been terminated from her job. The Rophe of the Carolinas, her employer, released a statement confirming her dismissal.
