Rebel Wilson’s hand was forced in coming out to the world – I feel her pain
So when it happened to Rebel Wilson last week, I felt all of her pain. Except hers happened on a global scale. When Rebel announced recently that she had her very own ‘Disney Princess’ via the most adorable social media post, it seemed nothing other than wholesome on the surface.
However, it soon transpired that Australian newspaper the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) had been planning to publish details of her new romance, so it appears they forced her hand in coming out.
Not only that, but the language this publication used when discussing Rebel’s history of dating men was vile. They suggested she was happy to ‘brag’ about her love life with her ex-boyfriend, questioning why she didn’t do the same with her new girlfriend.
Well, is it any wonder she wasn’t so loud about her romance when she was being forced to address her new relationship and she works in an industry where homophobia is around every corner?
