TikTok Star Remi Bader Says Ranch Mistreated Her and Refused to Let Her Ride Horses Due to Her Weight
Fashion influencer and curve model Remi Bader claims that a ranch wouldn’t allow her to ride horses due to her weight.
On Saturday, the social media star, 26, shared a TikTok which detailed her experience at Deep Hollow Ranch in Montauk, New York.
“Shout out to Deep Hollow Ranch in Montauk for making me leave because I weigh over 240,” she wrote over a clip of the ranch.
In the caption of the video, Bader claimed she has experience riding horses and “never had this issue,” adding, “Please advertise this on your signs for the future.”
Bader also said she didn’t “need any opinions on this one” in the comment section of her post.
“Its the fact of how it wasn’t advertised and how poorly it was handled,” she explained to her more than 2 million followers. “This was my experience not yours.”
“It was very embarrassing [sic] to be told I need to leave alone when everyone else got to stay lol,” she added.
In a second video, Remi Bader shared her reaction to TikTok user @Broudy.Keogh — who the ranch confirmed is a teenage employee — saying, “When you’re not a fat b—- you can ride at Deep Hollow Ranch.”
She captioned the video, “Imagine this being deep hollw [sic] ranch’s response to your experience.”
Deep Hollow Ranch issue an apology in a Facebook post following the employee’s TikTok.
“It has come to our attention that a TikTok video was posted regarding the ranch and a teenage employee posted a response that in no way represents nor is aligned with the views that the owners of the ranch hold,” the ranch stated.
The ranch continued, “We would like to apologize to anyone who this offended and we do not condone or agree with any part of that employee’s video.”
No official weight restrictions are stated on ranch’s website or blog. A post titled “How Much Weight Can A Horse Carry?” suggests that “a rider should be not more than 15% of the horses’ weight.”
