Wednesday star Percy Hynes White
Wednesday star Percy Hynes White is hitting back at all the allegations against him as a "campaign of misinformation''. Percybecame a known face for playing Xavier Thorpe on the Netflix show Wednesday.
Earlier this year, Hynes was all over the headlines after several sexual assault allegations against him started circulating on social media. However, months later, Hynes finally addressed the matter.
Without mentioning which campaign he was talking about, Percy wrote in his statement,“Earlier this year, somebody I’ve never met started a campaign of misinformation about me online. Because of this, my family has been doxxed, and my friends have received death threats,”
Sharing the statement on Instagram stories, he wrote,“Underage photos of me were used, and examples of me acting in character were presented as hateful. My friend Jane was falsely portrayed as a victim, and her attempts to set the record straight have been ignored. She gave me permission to include her in this message.”
He continued, "The rumours are false. I can’t accept the portrayal of me as someone bigoted, or criminally negligent of people’s safety. These are the kind of baseless, harmful claims that can create mistrust toward victims. It’s very distressing to know that this misinformation has upset people. I’m really thankful for everyone who’s stood by me and helped share the facts. Harassment of my family, friends and coworkers needs to stop, please. Thank you for taking the time to read this"
