Constance Wu, known for her lead roles in “Fresh Off the Boat” and “Crazy Rich Asians,” said she attempted suicide three years ago after receiving backlash for tweets she wrote about the hit TV show.
In a statement shared on Twitter, Wu said she was making her return to social media after a three-year hiatus, during which she wrote an autobiographical book, “Making a Scene.”
“I was afraid of coming back on social media because I almost lost my life from it,” Wu said. “3 years ago, when I made careless tweets about the renewal of my TV show, it ignited outrage and internet shaming that got pretty severe.”
