[RL] Scandal Icon not going away after cleared scandal

Same here! It keeps increasing in length and wont go away! So frustrating!!! Mine got down to 4 days and then bumped up to 16 days twice now. What to do, EA?!?

Could you please provide the following information

- Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.

Bump! Experiencing the same issue, sim received moodlet "Unfair Affair" after being exposed in a cheating scandal. The original moodlet was 9 days, same in the notebook.  
Next day my sim travelled and the moodlet changed to a different higher number around ~16. The tooltip in the notebook stays correct. Throughout the course of the game, the number kept changing, especially triggered by travelling it seems. There is a third indicator I noticed much later on, which is when you hover over the sim and see the count there too. That one just does its own thing entirely; it's currently at over 300 days, but hit over 1.5k at some point. The moodlet itself remains smaller; still hit something like 80 days at some point.

The moodlet itself is fixed if changing the sim in the mirror, but does go awry when the sim moves anywhere. 

I have mods and I am not ready to get rid of them at the moment, though they are minimal, but on the sims reddit I saw quite a few people having the same issue, some confirming without mods. Posting this to raise awareness of the issue

My Sim's secret was exposed, and I received a moodlet that was supposed to last 9 days, the scandal. But when those 9 days ended, instead of the moodlet disappearing, it changed to 16 days, then 33 days, and it keeps increasing. I've already tried going to the computer to write apologies or deny accusations, but it only gets worse and keeps increasing, and the scandal never ends. This is happening to my Sim and other NPCs in scandals.

same issue. no mods installed. is frustrating to keep having the stupid purple scandal cloud popping up. scandal cleared has ZERO minutes now, but won't clear off.

Hi! I had this same problem, no mods, repaired game, etc. I ended up buying the moodlet solver drink from the aspiration rewards, and it disappeared! Also- for others commenting, you can turn off the scandal purple clouds by clicking on the sim, similar to the fame shine toggle. 
Annoying bug that I hope they fix soon, but hope this helps for now!
