Kate Hudson confirmed her brand Fabletics is no longer working with the YouTuber who 'rehomed' her adoptive son

• Kate Hudson has confirmed her sportswear company Fabletics is no longer working with Myka Stauffer.
• Influencer and YouTuber Stauffer posted a video to her channel last week where she and her husband James explained their adoptive son Huxley had been placed in a new home.
• They said they weren't equipped to meet Huxley's medical needs, including autism, and faced a fierce backlash from the public.
• Hudson replied to a fan directly asking about Stauffer, who previously partnered with Fabletics, saying she had been "terminated."
• The Fabletics Instagram account also further clarified the company was no longer working with Stauffer.

Kate Hudson informed a concerned fan on Instagram that her athleisure company Fabletics was no longer working with influencer and YouTuber Myke Stauffer.

Stauffer, 32, and her husband James, 34, posted a video last week where they tearfully explained how their adoptive son Huxley had been placed in another home.

In the video, called "an update on our family," the couple said Huxley had gone to live with another family better equipped to deal with his medical needs, including his autism. They said he was happy and doing well, and the new home was "a really good fit."

However, not everyone responded with sympathy, and the Stauffers were met with fierce criticism about their decision being unethical and selfish. They also faced backlash about not being transparent about what really happened, and trying to hide the fact that Huxley was no longer part of their family for months.

Concerned fans have also flocked to the social media pages of companies that previously partnered with Stauffer, including Fabletics.

Hudson replied to one comment saying "she was terminated," according to screenshots shared by People magazine.

"Thank you for your awareness and care," she wrote.

The Fabletics Instagram account has also further clarified the situation.

"Great colors!" wrote one customer. "Drop Kyka Stauffer like she dropped her autistic adopted child after years of making money off of himself thanks!"

Fabletics responded, thanking them for their concern about the "recent backlash circulating through social media."

"I would like to inform you that we are no longer working with Myka Stauffer," they wrote.

Stauffer appears to have deleted all her posts associated with Fabletics, and a page on the Fabletics website detailing their partnership has also been taken down.

Several other companies have also halted agreements with Stauffer, including Playtex Baby, Chili's, and Danimals, People reported.

The couple have not publicly responded to the backlash except for one now-deleted comment from Stauffer under her YouTube video, caught by US Magazine, where she said Huxley "wanted this decision 100%."

She said they would "never just give up" a child with special needs, and this was "a personal matter" that had nothing to do with Huxley's autism.

"Multiple scary things happened inside the home towards our other children, and if these events happened with one of my biological kids, after all the help and after the behaviors we witnessed sadly we would have no other choice then to seek help and get their needs met," she wrote.

The couple, from Columbus, Ohio, has four other children under eight years old: Kova, Jaka, Radley, and Onyx.

"Huxley wanted this decision 100%," the comment continued. "We saw that in family time with other people, he constantly chose them and signed with and showed tons of emotion to show us and let us know he wanted this. Huxley never had a say in his adoption, and he needed more help and also wanted this and we know that 100%."
