"I hope everyone remembers the main theme I have tried to teach them over the past decade, which is to focus on and to protect their mental health/peace from people or a world who seek to destroy it, which is why I can't be there today."
"He has been advised by his therapist to protect himself and his peace by not attending."
"Love yourselves and protect yourselves. That's why I'm here at home and not there."
During final-season promotion on CBS Mornings and Today, Karamo Brown did not join his Fab Five colleagues. Gayle King announced Brown's absence after receiving notice less than an hour before the appearance. Brown's statement said he prioritizes protecting his mental health and peace from people or a world who seek to destroy it. Brown's assistant communicated concerns about being bullied, and a Today host said Brown has felt mentally and emotionally abused for years and was advised by his therapist to stay away. Brown sent a video urging self-love and protection, thanking crew, fans, and Netflix executives without naming fellow cast members.
