Ricky Whittle's Mom Criticizes 'The 100' Showrunner & 'Bullies' In Series of Tweets

We’re not sure if we want to see Ricky Whittle leave The 100 for good…but his mom’s tweets are making us worry.

If you didn’t know, the 34-year-old actor was cast as Shadow in Starz’ upcoming American Gods small-screen adaption which will start filming in April. Does that mean he’s off The 100 for good, or not?

While no official word or statement has been released, Ricky‘s mom has implied that he has left the show because of “bullies” and goes on to criticize shworunner and executive producer, Jason Rothenberg.

“Finally got full story from my son, @JRothenbergTV should be ashamed! Disgusting behaviour from grown man & one in ‘power to an honest person,” his mom writes in one tweet.

She continued, “Even as a boy Rick always stood up for himself & others against bullies, I’m proud he continued this trend & glad karma rewarded him. I hope he shares the sad truth so u all understand why he had to walk away. Nobody should have to deal with bullies alone, talk to someone.”
