The above comment was in response to a post uploaded by a fan, Angel Brooks. On April 22, 2025, Angel wrote on Facebook that Eric should mind his own business, adding:

"What is wrong with Eric! Can't he mind his own business? Meddling between grown-ups! It looks like he's wearing a skirt these days. Does Taylor's feeling not count??? Has he already forgotten that Brooke covered up for her daughter instead of telling the truth about Hope and Carlton, what could have prevented the takeover!"
