I’ve seen people talk about actors and artists that had a terrible time.
My own would be Anne Rice. She wrote Interview with the Vampire after her young daughter died of Leukemia. Then her husband suddenly died of a brain hemorrhage. I suspect her Christian, anti-fanfic phase was a result of mental illness and manipulation from the publishers, although I don’t think she ever apologized.
Oh trust me, I have listened to everything she’s put out wanting to give her the benefit of the doubt and that is why I don’t support her anymore. She has made a total ass of herself, literally tweeted Merry TERFmas and comparing trans people to Death Eaters, her own wizard Nazi stand-ins. She can make all the excuses she wants but she just doubles down on being hateful and I’m done with her.
