But there was also a shitshow on Twitter, questions about his sexuality, people prying into his love life, and the online stalking of his family members including an older sister, 23, and brother, 22, “who could not care less and are not very interested in my career”.
Heartstopper obsessives wanted to know why he was holding a woman’s hand. He was accused of “queerbaiting” (defined as straight people appropriating queer culture). He typed: “i’m bi. congrats for forcing an 18-year-old to out himself. i think some of you missed the point of the show. bye”.
Shame this had to happen. I'm really ashamed for people harassing other people just doing their work.
