An ‘inappropriate’ outfit
In an interview with the Mirror Online, Gabrielle said she felt very humiliated and only wanted to walk around the shopping centre. She didn't appreciate being approached like that, which is a normal reaction. She stated:
I told them I have bigger thighs and it's just too hot for jeans that I can't help they ride up a bit. They went as far as to threaten to call a police officer.
After the incident, she shared a photo on social networks of the outfit she was wearing that day. Her post was accompanied by a caption stating that she had been expelled only because ‘…grown men couldn't contain themselves…,’ which is a bit radical, to say the least.
She also talked about feeling harassed by security, because he was allegedly staring at her buttocks too much, proof that it was mainly the security guard who seemed to have a problem with her outfit, and not all the men present in the shopping centre that day.
