“I’m celebrating Thanksgiving solo, safely at home while my ex takes our son to an indoor house party in an Uber to celebrate Thanksgiving with a handful of new, maskless friends,” Henriquez, 35, tweeted on Thursday, November 26. “He’s everything that’s currently wrong with the world — a–holes who think rules do not apply to them.”
The If You Loved Me You Would Know author continued in another set of deleted posts: “For all the people who lost a loved one this year or have been battling Covid, remember that it’s all [because] of people like @joshlucas who will do whatever they want to do, without consideration for how it impacts anyone else, not even their own child. … Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who wasn’t a selfish a–hole.”

I deserve better than this. Our son deserves better than this.”
