A display with hot-pink teddy bear in fetish clothing outside a Disney Springs-area hotel was removed after outcry on social media.

An image tweeted by Libs of TikTok showed the teddy bear outside the Crowne Plaza Orlando – Lake Buena Vista hotel.

“@CrownePlaza why are you subjecting young children to looking at a b*ndage teddy bear? Disgusting,” the poster tweeted Friday on X. “We called the hotel and they told us it was for a private pride event but that the bear will remain up throughout the entire weekend.”

The property, an IHG hotel, reportedly said that a client hosting an event over the weekend had brought the outdoor decorations for display.

June is Pride Month and commemorates the 1969 beginning of the gay civil-rights movement.

The hotel didn’t issue a public response to the criticism, but by Sunday afternoon, the decoration outside the hotel was reportedly moved indoors.
