Made In Chelsea’s Miles Nazaire has faced furious fan backlash after the reality TV star admitted to rehoming his pet dog Rocky due to his busy career
A popular figure on Made In Chelsea has faced a huge backlash after admitting to rehoming his dog. Miles Nazaire took to social media to share the news that his pet pooch is no longer his as he is too busy being an influencer.
The 29-year-old reality TV star admitted he made the difficult decision to give up his animal as his career as a content creator was becoming too demanding. He uploaded a reel of sweet images and video footage of him with the dog in his post.
Miles wrote on Instagram: “I never imagined having to write a post like this, but I’m aware there’s been a lot of speculation about what happened with Rocky. Some parts of my life are deeply personal, and I’ve chosen not to share everything publicly not out of secrecy, but out of care.
“I waited to speak on this because I needed to make sure Rocky was safe, happy, and rehomed with the perfect family. That has now happened, and he’s exactly where he needs to be.”
The TV star went on to ask for fans to be kind and not make assumptions, but many still took to the comments section to share their dismay. As he continued, he wrote: ” I kindly ask that any further assumptions, judgment, or unkindness about my decision be put to rest. This was one of the most difficult choices I’ve ever had to make, and I made it with love.“To those who’ve shown compassion, understanding, and support, thank you. It’s meant more than you know. And a huge thank you to @thecountrydoghotel for assisting with his rehoming.”
Responding to the post, one user criticised: “I’ve moved countries and continents three times… and brought all my animals with me. Even though it was hard, expensive, or not convenient.
“I mean, I wouldn’t abandon my kid and animals are my kids too. I never judge but I do find it sad people get an animal for time being as if it’s an option to give them to someone else if they get “too busy”.”
Another fumed: “As a vet, I’m so disappointed. You took on the responsibility of getting a dog and then ditched him when he didn’t suit your lifestyle. Do the responsible thing and never get an animal ever again. You don’t deserve one. Grow up.”
However, some users were on hand to offer messages of support. One commenter wrote: “Sometimes the greatest act of love is the hardest one to make.
“Letting go of someone or a pet that you love—not because you stopped caring, but because they deserve more than you can give—is a heartbreaking, grown-up decision. It’s grown-up love for a grown-up situation.“To give a dog a chance at a life full of attention, joy, and everything they need—even if it means you’re no longer in the picture—is the most selfless kind of love there is. You didn’t fail them. You put them first. And that’s what love, in its most mature and courageous form, looks like.”
As well as his appearance on Made In Chelsea, Miles has become an influencer. He now has his own YouTube channel that lets fans have an insight into his lifestyle, fitness and food.
He has also appeared on other reality shows and contests. He took part in Dancing On Ice, finishing in second place with his professional partner, Vanessa Bauer.
