‘Heated Rivalry’ star François Arnaud unfollows cast on social media

François Arnaud has unfollowed the “Heated Rivalry” cast and others involved in the hit drama — including co-stars Hudson Williams, Robbie G.K. and Connor Storrie.

The actor, 40, also unfollowed series creator Jacob Tierney in the social media purge, which saw him trim his “following” list from over 1,000 to 213 in the past week, per Just Jared.

Arnaud is said to be weathering online threats after being seen jetting out from JFK airport with Storrie, 25, following their press week in the Big Apple, sparking dating rumors — and some fans think Storrie would be better paired with Williams, 24.

Fans flocked to X to comment on the escalating social media drama.

“François Arnaud has unfollowed everyone involved with Heated Rivalry on Instagram including the whole cast and creator Jacob Tierney Nasty comments and online harassment seem to have caused François to limit his online presence,” one person remarked, while another chimed in, “They need to leave this gentle king alone.”

“The comments and harassment is horrible and unjustified, but I don’t get unfollowing his cast members?” questioned a third.

Others were concerned the apparent drama could affect Arnaud’s participation in Season 2 of the hit series.

“If because of toxic fans we don’t get François Arnaud in season 2 of HEATED Rivalry I’m gonna lose my f–king mind believe me,” an X user wrote.

“Saying françois isn’t helping by unfollowing any accounts related to the show. HE IS GETTING DEATH THREATS,” yet another person wrote.

“THE QUEER MAN ON THIS SHOW IS GETTING DEATH THREATS. & you think he’s just being ‘messy’ and ‘asking for attention’ this fandom is full of people who belong in padded rooms.”

Storrie and Hudson star in the steamy show as rival hockey players — and secret lovers — Shane Hollander and lya Rozanov, while Arnaud plays Scott Hunter.

Reps for Storrie and Arnaud did not immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment.

Arnaud admitted he’s been overwhelmed by his social media following amid the success of “Heated Rivalry,” even suggesting he should shut down the whole account.

“Oh, Helen Hunt… who not only followed me and other guys from the show, also commented on an old post of me, an old post,” he said during an appearance on the Sirius XM podcast “The Morning Mashup.”

“And she said, ‘You’re so good in this and everything else,’” the actor claimed.

“I was like, ‘Is she going through my whole filmography?’ Yeah, I had to, I’m like, ‘Oh delete Instagram now. I don’t need to see anything else.’ Shut the whole thing down.”

“This is how it should end,” he added. “This is my happy ending.”
