Tee Tee Terry shut down online speculation with a fierce defence of Sha'Carri Richardson, making it clear she will not tolerate disrespect toward those in her inner circle.

Two-time world champion Twanisha ‘Tee Tee’ Terry has strongly defended Sha’Carri Richardson following a ‘disrespectful’ comment from a social media user.

Tee Tee Terry had shared a tweet, extending a hand of gratitude to Olympic 100m bronze medallist Melissa Jefferson-Wooden for gifting her AirPods after she seemingly lost hers.

In the tweet, she was also celebrating Jefferson-Wooden as a great friend, hinting at her great listening skills and gifting personality.

Tee Tee Terry revealed that the Airpods were not your typical pods, as they cost a lot of money, revealing that Melissa Jefferson-Wooden had about Ksh 12 million.

“Get you a friend that solves ya problems without asking…I mentioned I misplaced my AirPods, and Melissa randomly ordered me a new pair that’s what $100k allows you to do,” she shared in a tweet.

However, some of the social media users observed that she rarely talks about Sha’Carri Richardson, with one directly pointing it out.

What did the X (Twitter) user say?

Replying to Tee Tee Terry’s post, one X user praised her bond with Melissa Jefferson-Wooden as seemingly perfect.

However, they went on to speculate that any distance between the duo and Sha’Carri Richardson might stem from differences in upbringing, noting that Richardson was raised by her grandmother, while Terry and Jefferson-Wooden were raised by both parents.

“You and Melissa seem to be really cool. More so than Sha’carri and you or Sha’carri and Melissa. Probably cause both of y'all have fathers and Sha’carri never had one,” the comment read.

The Olympic 4x100m champion lashed out at the netizen, noting that she would not allow people to insult Sha’Carri Richardson in her presence.

Tee Tee Terry revealed that Sha’Carri Richardson is her training mate, and the relationship she has with the world 100m champion should not be a point of concern to any other person.

“Let me make one thing very clear — I don’t tolerate anyone degrading people I’m associated with, ESPECIALLY those I train with. That comment was not only disrespectful, it was completely out of pocket,” Tee Tee Terry wrote.

“Whatever relationships exist between me, Melissa, and Sha’Carri are none of your business, and definitely not something to be picked apart based on personal assumptions.

“You don’t get to follow me and feel entitled to speak on people I care about like that. I stand on respect — if you can’t, unfollow.”

Tee Tee Terry’s bold response served as a powerful reminder that loyalty and respect still reign supreme. When it comes to her circle, she is not letting anyone throw shade without being called out.
