Mikayla Nogueira, a beauty influencer, recently addressed questions and criticisms regarding her marriage and her husband, Cody Hawken. While on a business trip in Seoul, Nogueira shared a TikTok to clarify that Hawken’s absence from her recent videos was due to his own work commitments. She pointed out the unfair scrutiny she faces from viewers who question her marriage whenever she travels alone, even going as far as calling her a “horrible wife.”
In her TikTok post on June 24, Nogueira defended her marriage, highlighting that she was in Korea for work purposes and questioned why it was necessary for her husband to accompany her on every trip. She explained that Hawken has his own job and limited vacation time, emphasizing that he couldn’t always join her on her travels. Nogueira expressed frustration at the constant skepticism surrounding her relationship and urged viewers to stop making unfounded assumptions about her marriage.
This isn’t the first time Nogueira has addressed personal matters on social media. Earlier this year, she revealed that her husband had entered rehab, explaining that he had struggled with addiction in the past. Nogueira shared her pride in Hawken’s decision to seek treatment after experiencing relapses in 2024, highlighting the complexities of addiction and the importance of understanding the recovery process.
Nogueira, who married Hawken in July 2023, emphasized the challenges of supporting a loved one through addiction and the need for empathy and awareness in dealing with such issues.
