Janet Hubert, well known for her role as “The Fresh Prince of Bel- Air’s” original Aunt Viv, took to Instagram on Dec. 7 to send a message to people she labeled “vultures” following her recent hospitalization.
This comes three days after the actress said she was in the hospital for unknown reasons while posting a cryptic message about how not making peace with others can hurt one’s body, which got conflicting comments. Hubert also praised Will Smith, her former co-star, for sharing the truth about their conflict.
Smith and Hubert’s public feud reportedly began in the 1990s, when she was replaced for her role on “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” season four by another actress. The pair eventually reconciled in 2020 during the show’s reunion special, where Hubert admitted she blamed the star for her career stagnation after her firing.
Hubert brought up the harsh portrayal of her now-deleted health post in a subsequent upload, calling out the media as well as certain unidentified individuals. She also notified her followers that she had returned home, in addition to her outburst.
“Wow… the press and some of you are ready like Vultures to circle the corpse…well this body will reach up and grab your a–s and have you for dinner I am home and my health is my business alright,” the 65-year-old concluded her remark.
“To the many of you who helped me feel better with your well wishes…THANK YOU!” Hubert stated. Heals in a positive way, but kills in a negative way. I’M LIVING MY LIFE, SO LIVE YOURS. As Hubert’s post went viral, many people remarked on the star’s fiery attitude.
“Ain’t even cut off the hospital band off her wrist yet and still sassy.”
“I swear this lady had enough sass and attitude for a small village!”
“Why she so spicy but ok happy you are ok.”
“Why is She so ZESTY.”
Among the comments regarding Hubert’s attitude, other people brought up that the flak she received regarding her health post was her fault because of how she shared the news on her social media page. One wrote, “You legit put your business out there though miss mamas , along with some message that could’ve been assumed you were on your deathbed… All this sass for what?”
Another said, “She’s saying it’s not our business when she literally involved us by posting about it…. not to mention the bringing back up of Will & her when we all thought that was squashed… it’s giving stay relevant auntie Viv but lemme mind my business chilleee.”
