Well, there you have it. It looks like Anne Twist has seen the negativity surrounding Don’t Worry Darling, especially where her famous son is concerned.

Anne Twist’s post on Instagram further shows just how much chatter about Don’t Worry Darling has concurred online. Harry Styles is one of the most popular and famous celebrities in the world right now, which is no doubt why his mother has managed to accrue a whopping 2.6 million followers on the social media outlet.

As Anne Twist shared to her followers, she’d like to see less negativity and vitriol coming from the internet (which is easier said than done). While not actually naming any names, she claims that no one is being forced to see Don’t Worry Darling, and any naysayers can simply remove themselves from being associated with Olivia Wilde’s thriller. What’s more, she doesn’t want followers who are going to indulge in such negativity. As a reminder, you can check out the trailer below,

As previously mentioned, there have been a number of controversies surrounding Don’t Worry Darling ahead of its release in theaters. Perhaps the most popular is that Olivia Wilde is feuding with Florence Pugh. Then there’s the matter of how Shia LaBeouf departed the role of Jack, which eventually went to Styles. Fans also theorized online about whether or not Harry Styles spit on Chris Pine’s lap at the Venice Premiere, which has now been lovingly called “spitgate.” Finally, there’s the One Direction alum’s romantic relationship with Wilde, and continued drama associated with her split from Jason Sudeikis.
