Charles’ latest appearance came just two days after the beauty guru announced that he had decided tocancel his upcoming 24-city Sisters tour.
“Obviously the past few weeks have been a roller coaster and I’ve been dealing with this,” he said on his Instagram Story, according toE! Online, adding that for the time being he wants to continue on making his mental health his top priority.
“I am trying to move on with my life and focus on good things that make me happy and they can take my mind off of things,” he continued. “I feel that I can’t deliver that best version of James right now, and that sucks but I’m working on it, I promise.”
While some celebrities have distanced themselves from the blogger in the wake of his feud with Westbrook, Jenner hasn’t been one of them.
Aftersharing a photographof himself and Jenner at the mogul’s skincare launch, several of his followers expressed their surprise, as Jenner was not following him on Instagram.
Replying to one of the commenters, Charles wrote that they shouldn’t read too much into that, as Jenner had“never followed” him“in the first place.”
The fight between Charles and Westbrook all started after he posted about Sugar Bear Hair vitamins, a competitor to her own supplement brand, Halo Beauty. In her immediate response, which was shared on Instagram, Westbrook said shefelt “betrayed” and “lost,”without naming Charles directly.
After sharing an initial apology video, Charles went on to fire back at Westbrook in alengthy video post titled “No More Lies,”in which he addressed many of the allegations made against him.
“I have never and would never and will never use my fame, money or power to manipulate or get any sexual actions from a guy. That is disgusting. It is not me and the fact that Tati brought this up blows my mind,” he said.

Praising them both for “taking some of the responsibility for blowing this whole thing up and starting everything,” Charles thanked both of the content creators for “trying to redirect the hate away, because I think we’re all aware at this point that it has gotten way too far.”
Westbrook later explained via Twitter that she was ready to move on — and urged her fans to do the same.
Additionally, she has since deleted her initial tear-down video of Charles.
As the drama has subsided, Charles has also won back many of the three million followers he previously lost, and currently boasts over 15 million subscribers.
