unable to stop "following" (BB-3652)

Members who were once "following" and had read/write access to a PRIVATE repo(s) but eventually revoked their access and left are unable to stop following these private repositories after leaving/revoking. Every time I click on the red heart it gets blanked accordingly but soon as I refresh the page they go back to their normal full red state. I have 3 repos on my account that I just can't get rid of!
