Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly has faced a wave of severe criticism from Hollywood actors and the public alike after making controversial remarks about teenage victims of sexual abuse. The backlash intensified after actress Christina Ricci described Kelly as a 'danger to children' following Kelly's comments regarding the late financier Jeffrey Epstein and allegations against politician Matt Gaetz.
The political commentator's suggestions that crimes involving 15 and 17-year-olds are distinct from paedophilia have sparked a heated debate about child protection laws and media responsibility.
