No premiere date for The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder<\/em> has been announced.<\/p>\n

The official announcement comes after some rough headlines for Disney+. After announcing the Love, Victor<\/em>, the sequel series Love, Simon<\/em>, would be moving from Disney+ to Hulu after concerns over “adult themes,” Hilary Duff<\/a><\/strong> spoke out<\/a> about the temporary shelving of the Lizzie McGuire<\/em> series.
