1/2 Today I was on set when I found out the tragic news that my good friend Jamal Edwards had passed away and I’m honestly heartbroken. Jamal was one of the nicest, most down to earth and humble men I’ve met in this industry. He always gave me time even when no one else would.

Sadly @instagram have decided to deactivate my new account. All because 10 months ago I posted content stating some truths about Noel Clarke. I’ve been nothing but professional since then & would have hoped they’d review & reverse my lifetime ban. Told the truth & paid the price.

Sad to say but even though It was 5years ago since I had my public breakdown It feels like the industry still don’t fully trust me even though I’ve been on set and had various jobs in film and theatre..Just cos someone suffers from mental health it doesn’t make them unreliable.

Heart goes out to the freinds and family of Caroline Flack. we need to understand though that mental health can effect anyone, it doesn’t matter how successful you are. the pressure in the entertainment industry can be one of the hardest. we just need to care more for each other.

My career was definitely destroyed by Noel Clarke. He would brag about it. So I’m honestly so proud of @thedalstonyears and @Lucy_Osborne and all the women that came forward to speak the truth. And @guardian for ignoring the lawyers and finally putting the real story out there.

I need to raise the point that many people suffer from Mental Health problems but they don’t say the things Wiley has been saying. I hate to say this as I’m massive fan of Wiley’s music but what he’s been saying is wrong. Any form of racism is wrong. Just really hope he gets help

All jokes aside I had a breakdown and made mistakes, burnt bridges and can understand why the industry might see me as a liability and not wanna cast me due to everything that happened but not being on set kills me. actually hurts my heart not doing what I love. It’s all I know

I really do hope the media will change the way they deal with mental health to. Whatever you do for a living at the end of the day were just normal people who need a little help sometimes. This is how they handled mine and it nearly pushed me over the edge if I’m being honest. 👇🏼
