Alex Barnes-Ross Calls Conditional Love “Horrible” After Mum Erases Him From Website
Alex Barnes-Ross took to YouTube on Valentine’s Day to bemoan the tragedy of conditional love from a parent—the exact hardship he has faced in recent weeks.
Barnes-Ross described how “horrible” such an ordeal is for a child. “Love should be unconditional,” he insisted. “You love your kids no matter what.”
Anyone aware of Barnes-Ross’ self-inflicted plight over the last several weeks could read between the lines: Barnes-Ross’ mum just wiped her website clean of any mention of her son after evidence of his serial harassment and stalking went viral.
Fiona Ross has good reason to publicly dissociate herself from her ever more discredited son.
By way of background: Barnes-Ross had first stalked a young female Scientologist he was desperate for a sexual relationship with. Immediately after this came to light, he redirected his stalking efforts toward a female Church staff member. Barnes-Ross was so brazen he even detailed his own depraved behaviour in a YouTube video—a video that the platform has since taken down because it violated the privacy of the woman he had just stalked.
All of this was apparently more than Mum could bear. Where Barnes-Ross once commanded an entire page as a “collaborator” on Fiona Ross’ website, evidence that he exists at all is now nowhere to be found on the platform.
Fiona Ross has good reason to publicly dissociate herself from her ever more discredited son: Ms. Ross is the head of a female-focused nonprofit, Women in Jazz Media. Creating distance between herself and the young man who is now an infamous stalker was likely a wise professional move.
Of course, this profound rejection from his own parent—a person who, Barnes-Ross whimpers, should love him “no matter what”—leaves him in the pathetic position of bemoaning the exact kind of conditional love he’s now the recipient of for life, from his own mum.
As Barnes-Ross put it in his February 14 video: “Healing out loud is ugly.” Yet he insists on doing it anyway.
Whether the teary Valentine’s Day video was a cry for help or a covert effort to get back at his mum, one thing is for sure: Alex Barnes-Ross has never been more toxic—or more alone.
