In a statement given to Deadline, MTV, Catfish's home network, explained that though a formal complaint was never received, they still reached out to a third party and carried out an investigation. MTV said, “The independent investigator found the allegations made in the YouTube videos to be not credible and without merit.”

During an interview with People, Nev made a relieved statement of his own. He told them, “I’ve lived a number of different lives in my 33 years. I’ve experienced different things, I’ve been in different social circles and I’ve made mistakes. I’ve been very honest about those and I’ve been accountable, I’ve apologized and done everything I could to make right where I may have wronged. I’ve been judged for those mistakes — publicly and privately. That’s tough and doesn’t feel good but it’s important and something I’ve made part of my life.”

Though he said felt “powerless” during the investigation and after being “accused of something that he squarely did not do,” he was grateful for his support system.

The 33-year-old said, “I had the amazing support of the fans of the show but also of my colleagues, the crew. Several people who had been on the show actually reached out to me and offered to speak up in my support if necessary. I’m just so thankful and grateful to everyone.”
