David Dobrik’s Vlog Squad has become one of the most controversial groups online, and now, they have found themselves embroiled in another controversy. Influencer-model Annelise JR has alleged that one of the group’s members broke her foot in 2018, leading to numerous surgeries and the onset of a chronic illness.

The Instagram model previously dated former Vlog Squad member Joe Vulpis. However, a traumatic incident that took place amongst the group ended her friendship with the Vlog Squad.

Annelise took to her Instagram stories on November 4, detailing the incident that “ruined” her life and resulted in a breakup with former Vlog Squad member Vulpis. She claimed that while she spent time with the group in 2018, an unnamed member stepped on her foot twice, breaking it.

She also alleged that she was “pressured” to not speak of the incident to anyone, “which in turn caused me a lot of PTSD in group settings & made me super depressed”.

The model also revealed that the incident led her to go to therapy and “remove herself from the situation”.

Speaking about her injuries, Annelise revealed:

“That incident literally ruined my life, and I have chronic pain every day. Multiple surgeries, two hours of physical therapy a day. Simple things like sitting in a chair can cause bad pain.”

The social media personality suffers from lymphedema and May-Thurner syndrome in the legs as well. Annelise claims that her May-Thurner is linked to her broken foot.

Doctors told her that she could no longer conceive after the tragic incident due to the already persistent condition.

Annelise also stated in her Instagram stories that she would not reveal which Vlog Squad member is responsible for breaking her foot. She mentioned that she does not want “them to be harassed” as it was merely an accident.
