Abbie Chatfield has announced her decision to step down from her co-hosting role at the Fridayz Live tour following allegations of sexual harassment. The former Bachelor contestant, now an influencer, disclosed on Friday the existence of an “active lawsuit” involving one of the headline acts. Fridayz Live, a touring RNB and hip-hop music event presented by Hit Network’s RNB Fridays and New Zealand’s ZM & Flava, features Jason Derulo, Boyz II Men, and Kelly Rowland as this year’s headliners. Although Chatfield did not directly name Derulo, it was previously revealed that the singer, who also serves as a judge on The Voice Australia, was accused by US singer Emaza Dilan of soliciting sexual favors in exchange for assistance with her music career.
Dilan’s lawsuit accuses Derulo of aggressive behavior, harassment, and unwelcome sexual advances dating back to multiple incidents allegedly occurring in 2021-22.
“I’m just coming on here to let you know I have decided to step down from co-hosting the Fridayz Live tour this year and most likely in years to come,” Chatfield said on Instagram.
“At this time, there is an active lawsuit involving the headline act, including an allegation of sexual harassment.
“While these are presently allegations and there has been no resolution in court, I personally don’t feel comfortable performing my duties as co-host while these legal matters are outstanding.
“This is my personal stance and I have decided to remove myself from the line-up.”
On Friday, the Fridayz Live website revised its announcement regarding Abbie Chatfield, indicating that she will no longer co-host the Fridayz 2023 event due to personal reasons.
This tour, now in its sixth installment, is scheduled to visit Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney, and Auckland. Previous editions of the tour have featured prominent artists including 50 Cent, The Black Eyed Peas, Janet Jackson, Macklemore, and TLC.
