Skai Jackson’s fans are furious about her boyfriend’s recent Facebook Live.
The pregnant actress’ partner, Deondre Burgin, seemingly referenced her late “Jessie” co-star Cameron Boyce in a video that went viral on X Wednesday.
In the footage, Burgin, also known as Yerkky Yerkky, asked viewers to “stop comparing [him] to a dead” person.
He continued, “What the f–k? Y’all keeping comparing to a n—a that’s dead.”
Social media users quickly came to Boyce’s defense, with one writing that they “don’t play about Cameron Boyce at all.”
Another tweeted, “Don’t you ever disrespect cameron boyce!!!””
Boyce died of a seizure from epilepsy in July 2019 at age 20.
Jackson, 22, paid tribute to her fellow Disney Channel alum at the time, speaking to Entertainment Tonight about the loss of her “brother.”
She told the outlet. “It’s very sad. He was just a happy person. … But we’re going to continue his legacy, and I know he would be proud of us.”
The following year, the “Dancing With the Stars” contestant dedicated a performance to the actor.
Jackson and Boyce played Zuri Ross and Luke Ross, respectively, on “Jessie” from 2011 to 2017.
The actress made headlines in September after she was arrested for domestic battery over an alleged altercation with her partner — but charges were not filed in the “misunderstanding.”
Three months later, Jackson sparked pregnancy rumors and confirmed to People that she is expecting her first child.
“I’m thrilled to begin this new chapter in my life — embracing motherhood and diving into new acting projects,” the mom-to-be gushed on Tuesday. “My heart is so full!”
The following day, Burgin was arrested for a parole violation in Cincinnati, Ohio.
