Glamorous bleached-blond real estate influencer deletes herself from the internet after revealing what she REALLY thinks about Indians in Montana

By WILKO MARTÍNEZ-CACHERO, US REPORTER Published: 18:23, 5 June 2026 | Updated: 18:24, 5 June 2026 A glamorous Montana realtor and influencer with thousands of followers scrubbed her online presence following a shocking post demeaning her state's Native American population. Amanda Caldwell, of Bozeman, is being blasted for sharing a Facebook story on Tuesday of a first-person view of a woman riding a horse with the message: '"Finally a scenic spot that isn't filled with Indians".' 'Some guy in 1821, and also me in 2026,' ended Caldwell's post, for which she rapidly received pushback. A member of the Crow tribe, JC Pretty Paint, said Caldwell's story showed that 'racism is real, and it's still here.' 'I don't see why Natives have to be put in the perspectives that we are,' Pretty Paint, who attended school in Bozeman, told KBZK. 'We're just people like anybody else.' 'As long as you're that color and you look a certain way, you get that vibe that's just different, and it's uncalled for,' he added. Caldwell has since deleted her post and the Facebook account she made it on. As of Friday afternoon, she still had more than 230,000 followers across her other social media profiles. In a statement issued to the outlet, Caldwell, a self-employed realtor with the Montana Life Real Estate Group, repeatedly apologized for her post and said she had shared the story 'without fully considering what it meant.' Realtor and influencer Amanda Caldwell, of Bozeman, Montana, has come under fire for a post that demeaned her state's Native American population Caldwell's Facebook post featured the message, "'Finally a scenic spot that isn't filled with Indians"' Caldwell claimed she was creating Montana landscape and outdoor-themed reels using texts circulating online.  'The words included in the post in question were not written by me and originated elsewhere online,' she told the outlet. 'I want to take this opportunity to say I am sorry,' Caldwell said. 'I made a mistake.' She insisted that she did not 'hold discriminatory views toward anyone' in the wake of her demeaning repost. 'Indigenous presence, history, and culture are part of what makes this state extraordinary,' Caldwell added. 'I am committed to doing better and being more thoughtful about everything I share or reshare online.'  In a public LinkedIn, Caldwell has described herself as an expert in ranch and equestrian land acquisitions, as well as an entrepreneur 'leveraging my lifestyle in the outdoors and mountains.'  Native Americans make up a little less than 7 percent of Montana's population, according to 2022 census estimate currently cited by the state legislature. The state is home to seven federally recognized Indian reservations, including Blackfeet, Crow, Flathead, Fort Belknap, Fort Peck, Northern Cheyenne and Rocky Boy's, according to Montana State University.

'Which is kind of sad, but that's just what you see and hear in Montana,' Foote told the Billings Gazette. She said Caldwell's social media story reminded her of shocking real-life tales she used to hear from her grandfather. 'When he was young, there were signs up at stores in Billings that said 'No dogs, No Indians allowed,' Foote said. 'That wasn't too long ago.'
