Australia's weirdest online feud fires up again: Abbie Chatfield hits back at Instafamous pets Peggy and Molly's owners after they called her an 'attention w***e'
Abbie Chatfield has hit back at the owners of Instafamous pets Peggy and Molly after they called her an attention w***e.
The Bachelor star, 29, posted a long-winded rant to Instagram on Tuesday calling out Peggy and Molly's owners Juliette Wells and Reece Mortensen for trolling her on a post she shared in October 2023.
Peggy the Staffy and Molly the Magpie have taken social media by storm with their cute and unlikely friendship, having amassed just under 1 million followers on Instagram.
An animated series about their exploits is also in the works.
The subject came up after one of Abbie's followers commented on one of her posts with: 'Abbie do you remember when that Peggy and Molly animal account trolled you?'
Abbie wasted no time in responding, admitting in the lengthy clip, that showed her standing in front of a superimposed news.com article revealing that Peggy and Molly were to get their own animated series, that she thinks about it 'once a week.
'I think about it about once a week, that time that a staffy and a magpie trolled me – not them themselves, but their weirdo freak owners...who trolled me for wearing a hot little top.' she said.
Adding that she was fine with the animals themselves getting positive attention, Abbie continued, reminding followers where the online fracas began.
'So, let's take a trip down memory lane of the losers that own this account,' Abbie said.

'It all began when I posted a video saying, "@ the table of boomers loudly next to me b***hing about me saying they would be ashamed if their daughter wore that top out."'
"But after that, I got a comment from Peggy and Molly – official account, you can see it there – and it says, 'Yep, look up attention w**re and you'll see a pic of Abbie Chatfield,' and this is when my vengeance began.'
Abbie went on to reveal that she had never heard of the duo before, adding that she believed the comment was intended to come from a 'troll' account' not the verified Peggy and Molly account.

She said that after she posted several videos about the incident, Reese Mortensen, claimed that their account had been hacked.
'This is not us. Please do some research before commenting,' he wrote in an Instagram comment in response to a follower who was disappointed by their comment. 'We have been hacked.'
Abbie continued with: 'First of all, what research? The research is there, it's a screenshot with a verified account of you trolling me, because you forgot to change to your little troll account, because you're such a loser, you have a troll account, you f***ing losers, but now they're getting an animated series.'

'So, once they posted that, obviously I was going that's so funny, because why would anyone hack you to comment one thing on Abbie Chatfield's post and reply to a comment saying that I'm an attention w**re?'

'Keep holding people accountable Abbie,' another chimed in. 'The actual magpie and staffy would never be judgy even if they had thumbs.'
