Did Bill Burr's wife flip off Trump? | indy100

Donald Trump arrives at UFC 295 alongside Dana White and Kid Rock

ESPN

A video of Nia Renee Hill, actor, producer, and wife of comedian Bill Burr, has gone viral after many viewers believed she was flipping off former president Donald Trump. But was she actually aiming the gesture at Trump?

During a UFC event at Madison Square Gardens, Trump arrived just before the featherweight fight between Diego Lopes and Pat Sabanti. As the former President walks through the seats, Hill can be seen sticking both her middle fingers up.

Many believe Hill is directing the gesture at Trump, however she doesn't seem to be looking at the direction of the 77-year-old, rather looking into the cameras.

Burr and his wife have both been critical of Trump and other Republicans, such as presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis.

Hill hasn't spoken on the now viral clip, so there's uncertainty on whether or not the middle finger was aimed at Trump. Regardless, it has social media pretty divided.

Trump supporters were unsurprisingly critical of Hill's gesture that they believed to be aimed at the former President.

One Twitter/X user called Hill "disgusting":

Boycott Nia Ren\u00e9e Hill and husband, Bill Burr. She\u2019s disgusting! Flipping off President Trump won\u2019t be tolerated!

Whilst another called her "nasty":

Need to show how nasty Bill Burrs wife is.\n\nNia Renee Hill is nasty.

But critics of Trump called his supporters "hypocrites" for calling Hill names whilst "put[ting] f*ck Biden flags up for kids to read."

I dont care if you support Biden or trump, but what i find hypocritical is you all moan when Bill Burr\u2019s wife, Nia Ren\u00e9e Hill flipped off Donald Trump while at UFC295 but think its ok to put fuck Biden flags up for kids to read. get a fucking grip both sides.

I find it a tad bit ironic that some of the same people who fly \u201cF**k Biden\u201d flags on their lawn for my 6-year-old to read are angry that Stand Up comedian Bill Burr\u2019s wife, Nia Ren\u00e9e Hill flipped off Donald Trump while attending a UFC295 match.\n\n Hill certainly made a statement\u2026

And many seemed to love Hill's supposed message for Trump:

Didn't watch UFC last night, but I'm pretty sure Bill Burr's wife, Nia Renee Hill, won \ud83c\udfc6

Every day Trump flips off the American people with lies, threats and stochastic terrorism. \n\nWith two middle fingers, Bill Burr\u2019s wife, Nia Ren\u00e9e Hill, spoke for all of us.

Shout out to actress, writer, & producer Nia Renee Hill @niasalterego \nmarried to comedian @billburr\n\nTrumpers, your misogyny, racism, & hypocrisy are showing. You love your 'Fuck Biden' flags on lawns & trucks in front of kids. But complain when a woman does this? \nFree speech\ud83e\udee0

The rest of the UFC crowd, however, seemed happy with Trump's appearance as he entered the arena alongside his son, Donald Jr., Kid Rock, and Tucker Carlson. Despite the ongoing fraud trial regarding The Trump Organisation, he seemed to be in high spirits.
