It seems that Catherine McBroom and ACE Family’s troubles are following them in the new year. Recently, the matriarch lost a lawsuit and was ordered to pay $763000. Last year, she launched her own beauty brand, 1212 Gateway. However, things did not go well, and her former partner sued her. According to reports, she did not pay them the total amount which she agreed to in the contract.

After ordering her products, people shared their disappointment with Catherine McBroom’s beauty brand.
For Mother’s Day last year, Catherine McBroom shared a post promoting a deal on Instagram. However, she was met with backlash and criticism from her followers. According to them, they ordered from 1212 Gateway to support Catherine McBroom. However, their excitement shattered when they received damaged or faulty products. Similarly, few people got products with marks on them and long hair stuck to a bottle. Despite complaints, they were not compensated. In fact, for $100 worth of products, people received a $20 gift card.
A few months later, the ACE Family couple was sued by their former business partner.
According to the lawsuit, Catherine McBroom did not hold her part and did not pay the total amount which was agreed upon in the contract. At the same time, her former business partner in 121 Gateway company accused her of unprofessional conduct. Similarly, TBL Cosmetics sued her for alleged abandonment. Reportedly, Catherine McBroom had to pay $30,000,00 in punitive damages. According to reports, she was only supposed to be the face of the brand. However, she tried to take over the company and conspired with her family. At the same time, she gained access to the social media accounts of 1212 Gateway. To take control of the accounts, she changed passwords. This seems like a very immature move from her.
Recently, it was revealed that Catherine McBroom lost the lawsuit.
Apart from the lawsuit by her former partner, she also faced another one from the labeling manufacturer 360 Sourcing Group. According to new reports, Catherine McBroom lost the lawsuit this year. Not only did she breach the agreement, but she also failed to pay the invoices for the products. Therefore, now she will have to pay the said amount and interest. The new amount is $763000, which is more than she was supposed to pay. In other reports, Catherine McBroom’s former partner alleged that she ruined her brand’s reputation with the failed coup and unnecessary controversy.
So far, she has not responded to the news.
