For months, Abbie and Adam have endured shocking abuse and harassment from so-called 'trolls' online. While Adam previously did not want to address this and add fuel to the fire unnecessarily, he has changed his mind after two shocking public incidents - one occuring the morning of the Hottest 100. This kind of online abuse has real world consequences, and needs to be called out.
