In the footage, Michel is seen enjoying a macaron as the caption reads: “My friend who is a vegan of six years is eating a macaron for the first time and looks so happy, I don’t want to tell her.”
Lili said Michel has been on a plant-based diet for six years, adding: “I didn’t persuade her to have it, we went to a macaron shop and she asked if they were dairy free and they said ‘yes’.
“I think she was just so excited to try a macaron for the first time it slipped her mind that it might have other animal products.

“I took the video as a memory of her eating a macaron for the first time. A while later when I realised they had egg whites in them, I told her and she just laughed it off. I don’t think it affected her at all.”
When asked about the criticism to her viral video, Lili said: “I didn’t do anything bad. Lol. The TikTok reactions are to an eight-second clip so they don’t know what actually happened.”
She added: “What they say does not matter or affect our friendship in any way.”
