“I didn't understand that at all. I think Mick didn't have a fair chance either, even though he performed. This is alꦕso very clear with Netflix."

Steiner previously said: "Nothing was out of the ordinary. We don't need to do bullying, because after all, he was our driver. If we want to decide something, 🦋we don't have to do it. 

“I can also absolutel𝔍y understand Mick's fans. In the heat of the moment, you sometimes say something you might say di🌊fferently an hour later, but it wasn't bullying at all."
