It wasn’t long before fans of the show took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to slam Paige for her on-air antics and denounce her “childish behavior.”
“Little Princess Paige has never had anyone tell her no. It’s time to grow up and function in a grown-up world,” they wrote.
Another disgruntled viewer said: “Paige is a petulant little girl. She really thinks people are rude (when they’re not), she walks all over everything and now she’s slammed two sponsors. She’s not smart.”
