The relationship was ended controversially after what Bergdorf described as a [[transphobic]] hate campaign against her, including false allegations that she had taken part in pornographic films.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://gaytimes.co.uk/community/123116/munroe-bergdorf-dropped-as-childline-ambassador-following-transphobic-hate-campaign/|title=Munroe Bergdorf dropped as Childline ambassador following "transphobic hate campaign"|date=9 June 2019|website=GAY TIMES}}</ref> The NSPCC stated that their reason was nothing to do with Bergdorf being transgender, but because she invited LGBT young people to contact her directly over social media, which was not compatible with the NSPCC's own safeguarding policies. Over 150 NSPCC staff complained to senior management about the charity's treatment of Bergdorf.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-48643467|title=Munroe Bergdorf: NSPCC explains transgender activist decision|work=BBC News |date=14 June 2019}}</ref>
