“We did speak on the phone. She shared that in her [Instagram video],” Siwa told Page Six. “She didn’t share all the details of the meeting. But it was one of those memories that little 11-year-old me was just stuck with.”
“It was at the after-party that she didn’t wanna take a picture with me, and I was OK with that,” Siwa told the outlet. “But then I turned around, and when I looked back, she was taking pictures with other kids. And that’s what made me really upset.”
Jessalyn reiterated that it is important to pay attention to how you “treat people.”

“At the end of the day this story, it’s not about a simple photo it’s about how you treat people,” Jessalyn’s caption added. “Real, genuine kindness always goes a long way. It’s super easy to quote a Bible verse when everyone is looking at you but morals are what you have when no one is looking.”
