In a new Instagram Story post, Nickayla issued a statement in response to the backlash. The 25-year-old model wrote ""In the darkest time of my life, the only thing that is important is my friends & family."

Nickayla continued "Showing up for my nephew, even though I can't show up for myself" on Instagram.

"Im not concerned with the way things look because no one can see each agonizing moment we all endure. What matters most I've learned is to show compassion, not to judge others, & never take a moment of life for granted."

She ended her message by adding, "I hope you all can do the same."

According to reports, Nickayla was seen helping Ryan begin moving his belongings from his previous home in North Hills, in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley on Sept 6th.

The pair moved to a new rented home where they are both living 30 minutes away.

In photos from The Daily Mail, Ryan is seen in a black t-shirt revealing his abs, while Nickayla wore a black New York graphic crop top.

A few days later, the pair spent two hours loading his furniture from his old home into a yellow truck, which drove the actor to his new house.

The house has a pool and costs nearly $5,000-a-month to rent.
