Australian actress and comedian Rebel Wilson (“Back to Prom”), who admitted to dating a woman last week, was actually forced out of the closet by a famous reporter, who was about to publish details about their relationship. with business woman Ramona. Agruma.
On Thursday (9/5), he posted a photo with his girlfriend on his Instagram, writing in the caption: “I thought I was looking for a Disney prince … But maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney princess. Disney “.
After the repercussion, the actress thanked fans for the support on social media, hinting that the decision to come out was not an easy one. She wrote: “Thanks for the comments, this is a very difficult situation but I am trying to take it lightly”.
Over the weekend, famed columnist Andrew Hornery of Australia’s The Sydney Morning Herald revealed his responsibility, wrote barbarism, repented, crossed out his column and apologized.
What motivated Rebel Wilson to come out was an email from the columnist, which gave her a day and a half to go out and tell the story, otherwise she would have posted her girlfriend’s name without comment. The same columnist revealed her ultimatum in a text that sparked widespread criticism on social media, with LGBTQIA + activists saying it was unacceptable to pressure people to come out.
In response to the controversy, the newspaper initially denied pressuring the actress in this situation, saying she had “simply asked questions”. But the columnist soon admitted that there were “missteps in our approach”.
In the original, she wrote that she had “enough detail to publish” and “multiple sources”, giving the actress a 1pm Friday deadline to comment. But the actress did not respond to the email and wrote her post.
Losing the “scoop,” Hornery chased after the comedian, releasing a controversial text on Saturday (6/11), which was taken out of the air when it went viral over the weekend with negative comments. In the deleted column, he wrote that Rebel Wilson had “chosen to capitalize on the story” after contacting her. He added that “his choice to ignore our discreet, genuine and honest questions was, in our opinion, disappointing”.
The columnist became aware of the alleged blackmail only when he was forced to retract.
“I’m really sorry Rebel found it difficult. It was never my intention. But I see that she handled everything with extraordinary grace. As a gay man, I am well aware of how deeply it hurts discrimination. I would like to do is inflict that pain on someone else, “he wrote.
