What happened to Abraham Villa? The influencer addresses controversy.

If his TikToks are any indication, Abraham had a pretty good summer at first. In late July 2023, he posted a TikTok celebrating his official graduation from high school. Later in early August, he posted about his stormy but eventful first day at college, where he received a scholarship to study nursing. Unfortunately, that all came crashing down just a couple of weeks later.

On Aug. 30, Abraham posted a lengthy video. In the six-and-a-half-minute TikTok, Abraham tearfully addresses some controversial videos that were leaked a short while before his statement. These have been making the rounds throughout the final days of the month. He tearfully explains that because of these videos, he has lost his scholarship. He also admits that he's been suffering from anxiety due to the leaks.

The videos in question refer to some inappropriate footage of Abraham that was leaked onto Twitter. According to Abraham, he began his career in social media when he was 17 and was even "forced" to record these videos to make a living for himself and his sister after their mother passed and their father left them.

Despite the controversy, Abraham has expressed his desire to move forward. On Instagram, he wrote, "My past is not going to destroy my future." He also stated that even without the scholarship, he is going to continue studying to be a nurse.
