ET has reached out to Thompson and Carswell for comment.
Thompson has been dating Carswell, who’s five years her senior, for more than two years. When ET spoke with Thompson in July, she addressed public criticism of her relationship.
“In our relationship, the two most things that everybody is always talking about is our age gap and definitely because he’s Black and I’m white and we’re an interracial couple,” she said. “I don’t care because, at the end of the day, my sister approves, his mom approves, and we’re happy, so what fans got to say or what haters got to say I don’t really care.”
