T.I. has lost at least one Instagram follower in the wake of his “hymen check” kerfuffle: his daughter.

Deyjah Harris has unfollowed her dad on Instagram, reports E! News, following comments about annual gynecologist appointments to “check her hymen.” The so-called virginity test has been both debunked and denounced by medical professionals.

Harris, 18, has yet to publicly address the rapper’s shocking interview — although she did “like” several tweets which referred to T.I. as “possessive” and “controlling” after the “Ladies Like Us” podcast aired.

It’s unclear exactly when she unfollowed the 39-year-old rapper, but Harris is also no longer following T.I.’s wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, or her stepsister Zonnique Pullins, as pointed out by Hollywood Unlocked.

During the podcast episode, which has since been deleted, the “Whatever You Like” rapper boasted that he knows his daughter is still a virgin because her hymen is still “intact.”

“We have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her hymen,” he said. “As of her 18th birthday, her hymen is still intact.”

The backlash from both fans and celebrities was swift, with many calling the rapper out for the outdated practice, which the World Health Organization has called “a violation of the human rights of girls and women” and “has no scientific validity.” WHO also said the so-called “two-finger” test can be “detrimental to women’s and girls’ physical, psychological and social well-being.”

While T.I. has yet to address his comments, “Ladies Like Us” hosts Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham have since apologized for laughing at his “uncomfortable” remarks and removed the podcast episode.
