Unfortunately, as reported by the New York Daily News over the weekend, their relationship has deteriorated to the point where Griffin is demanding that Bloom stop calling her and refund the fees she paid.

“If you’d like to refund me the tens of thousands of $$ I wasted on your services maybe I’ll talk to you,” Griffin tweeted over the weekend. “Yes, I got Bloomed.” Griffin went on to say in another Facebook post. “I didn’t have a good experience with her.
