“Thanks for taking your energy again. 🏳️🌈”

Clearly, this shifted the dialog, as folks realized that Insurgent was really pressured to return out.
So apparently it wasn’t @RebelWilson’s alternative to return out… The @smh/@theage have admitted to giving her a heads up 2 days upfront that they have been going to “out” her.

And yesterday, Insurgent commented on the entire state of affairs with a easy assertion:
@katedoak @smh @theage Thanks in your feedback, it was a really laborious state of affairs however making an attempt to deal with it with grace 💗
Since then, the Sydney Morning Herald and the journalist who wished to put in writing the story about Insurgent’s relationship have confronted an enormous backlash (rightfully so) and apologized.

Popping out is usually an extended, scary course of, with many beats. Self-realisation, telling pals & household, a primary relationship. I assumed the press forcing folks to out themselves, no matter whether or not or not they have been prepared, was a factor of the previous. I should have been mistaken.
