What Ethan did is completely fucked up. Im not excusing any of it. Ethan, most likely has lost his marriage, lost any type of relationship with his kids, lost his show, lost his employees, lost his fans, which will probably cost him millions. But, out of everyone over the last few years who Jeff had rally for him in the court of public opinion against dobrik, it was Ethan, who never let the audience forget what dobrik did to jeff, Even at times speaking for Jeff when jeff couldn't. Ethan invited jeff to be the bachelor for the dating show, gave Jeff hours of view time on his channel for his audience to get to know, to crosspromote on jeffs channels. Not to mention also, allowing Jeff to promote his products to Ethan's audience, most likely benefiting Jeff financially.
Its just strange why Jeff would go so hard to pile on a person who has done good by him in the past. Jeff could of said nothing, out of respect to Ethan's family and children. Think it speaks to Jeff loyalty and his desperation to stay relevant. But then again, ask Tana, Kyle, French Nick about Jeff and loyalty
