Remi Bader took to her TikTok account and told her two million followers on TikTok that she was asked to leave the horse ranch because she was overweight. She uploaded a video of the ranch and wrote in the clip:

The caption read that the 26-year-old rode horses in the past and “never had this issue.” She also requested the ranch owners to disclose the weight limitations for future guests.

It is important to note that the TikToker was not demanding to ride the horse if her weight made it unsafe for the horse’s wellbeing. She asked the Deep Hollow Ranch owners to be upfront about the weight guidelines so people would not waste their resources visiting the ranch. She also asked them to be respectful of people of any size.

This comes after a teenage employee, alleged to be the owner’s son, called her a “fat b**ch” while responding to her TikTok video about the ranch.

The company apologized for the same in a social media post by saying:

Netizens react to the incident as Remi Bader had requested ranch to be clearer with the guidelines

Internet users were left divided over the incident, which took place at the ranch. Some vehemently stated online that the company was allowed to refuse those over the weight restrictions from riding the horses. Others slammed the owner’s teenage son for his hateful comments toward Remi Bader.

Generally, horses can carry up to 400 pounds based on the 20% rule. This means that each horse can carry 20% of its body weight. The weight of the horses in the ranch mentioned above remains unclear, making it possible for Bader to weigh over the limitations. However, as mentioned before, the TikToker requested the company to be mindful about how they interact with their customers and make the weight limitations much more transparent.

A few tweets where people were left divided over the incident read:

Speaking about the same, Remi Bader clarified with People magazine:

Remi Bader added that she felt like the ranch “did not want me there” simply because of her weight, which was “truly disappointing.”
