While talking to ESPN, Paul’s advisor Nakisa Bidarian stated, “We understand he was caught, you know, stopped at London Heathrow Airport, but we have no evidence of that.”

Furthermore, Jake Paul mentioned, “We don’t even know if that actually happened. You have to think, he is one of UK’s biggest stars, and he went to an airport and there’s no pictures of him there, there’s no footage of him there, nothing. And he was apparently there for the whole entire day trying to figure it out. Apparently, we don’t even know if he actually got denied entry into the United States.”
