Amanda Seyfried claims she was forced to hire a bodyguard after her controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

Speaking to British GQ in an interview published Monday, the “Housemaid” actress related how her description of the conservative political activist as “hateful” following his shooting death at a university last fall sparked a major response from critics, causing her to eventually fear for her own safety.

Revisiting the controversy, she told the outlet, “A, I’m allowed to f–king voice my feelings, and B, do it in a way that’s not unkind necessarily.”

“But there’s just an outsized fear and hatred and impulse to bash and to tear down,” she added. “And I experienced a very small fraction of that.”

“I want my kids to be able to feel safe to voice their opinions as long as they’re not harmful,” Seyfried, 40, continued.

“So I’m like, ‘What do I do? What do I say?’ And then all of a sudden I find myself with a f–king bodyguard at the airport and I’m like, ‘This is crazy.’” she concluded.

Kirk died after he was shot while on stage at Utah Valley University during a stop on his American Comeback Tour. He was 31.

He and his wife, Erika Kirk, shared two children — a daughter who will be turning 4 in August and a 2-year-old son.

Like the Kirks, Seyfried shares two children with husband Thomas Sadoski — daughter Nina, 9, and son Thomas, 5.

After her initial comment about Kirk following his death, Seyfried defended her statement by writing on Instagram, “We’re forgetting the nuance of humanity.”

“I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable in every way imaginable,” she continued. “No one should have to experience this level of violence.”

She concluded: “This country is grieving too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we agree on that at least?”

The Academy Award-nominated actress also refused to apologize for the social media comments in a December 2025 interview with Who What Wear.

“I mean, for f–ks sake, I commented on one thing. I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes,” the “Mean Girls” actress told the outlet.

“What I said was pretty damn factual, and I’m free to have an opinion, of course,” she added.

“90 Day Fiancé” producers stepped in after Mido and Debby got into an explosive argument on Sunday’s episode.

Mido, 41, moved from Egypt to New Orleans to be with Debby, 55, on this season of “90 Day Fiancé,” but it hasn’t been smooth sailing for the unlikely couple. Mido appears to want to pursue his dream of becoming a movie star in the US more than he actually want to marry Debby, which he all but confirmed during the episode.

Mido participated in an acting class, where he butted heads with the coach, Jim, because he didn’t want to follow the coach’s directions during an exercise.

After the exercise, Jim told cameras, “If I had to give Mido a grade for his participation today, I would give him a C+. For emotional availability, he did very well, but there is definitely room for improvement in being coachable.”

During a conversation with Jim after class, Mido asked him about his opinion about him moving to Hollywood to pursue acting. When the coach replied that there were a lot of aspiring actors who never achieved A-list stardom and said that many had to take survival jobs, Mido wasn’t having it.

“I’m not trying to find another job because if I work another job maybe it will take from my focus,” he said. “I know that Debby, she will support me and she knows that’s my passion.”

He also told Debby he couldn’t do chores in the house like washing the dishes or taking out the trash, because his “hands sometimes hurt.”

Later, Debby and Mido dressed up as a pharaoh and a queen to spend his first Halloween in the US together, and although Debby was excited since it was the first time Mido would be meeting her friends, he clearly wasn’t in the mood. Mido dismissively said he didn’t care if her friends like him or not.

Debby told cameras about her fiancé’s sudden cold attitude, “Mido can go from one to 100 in five seconds flat. iI’s whiplash. One minute can be great, and the next minute it can be something about something.”

When the couple met up with Debby’s friends at a haunted house, Mido was more interested in interacting with the haunted house performers than talking to her friends. The mood further plummeted when Debby gave one of her friends, Laura, a ride home and Mido stayed silent for the entire car ride.

When Debby stepped out of the car and returned, Mido was annoyed when she started crying. He showed no empathy for her and refused to have a conversation about why he was being so rude, harshly telling her to focus on her driving and shushing her.

Debby refused and told him to take an Uber if that’s what he wanted, and said she wouldn’t tolerate him yelling at her. Things quickly escalated and turned explosive when Mido told Debby, “F–k you.”

Debby yelled that she was done “with the whole f–king thing” and that Mido was “going home,” which is when a producer stepped in and tried to diffuse the situation.

Mido continued to yell and mock Debby for crying, calling her a “b–ch.” She then said she needed him out of her house as they took the argument outside of the car. One of her friends, Astra, stepped in after he told Debby to shut her mouth, which quickly escalated into Mido and Astra getting into a shouting match.

Mido yelled at her that she didn’t understand, while she yelled back, “That’s not how you treat woman in America, mother-f–ker!”

Mido eventually refused to engage and sarcastically thanked Astra for showing him respect. Debby eventually got back into the car and drove off solo, leaving Mido standing on the curb.

“F–k you,” he told her one last time as she drove off.
