Actress Shannon Purser, who has been featured on "Stranger Things" and "Riverdale", has come out as bisexual. She posted an emotional message on Twitter on Tuesday after backlash for a now-deleted tweet directed at fans of the Archie reboot "Riverdale", "shipping" the show's female characters Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge. The two locked lips in a previous episode, reports people.com.
"I don't normally do this, but I figure now is as good a time as any to get personal. I've only just recently come out as bisexual to my family and friends," Purser, 19, wrote in her post. "It's something I am still processing and trying to understand and I don't like talking about it too much. I'm very very new to the LGBT community," she continued.
"I have never ever wanted to alienate anyone and my tweet was thoughtless," the star penned. She said she wasn't referring to all the "beronica shippers, just the ones who had particularly cruel to me personally. Either way, it wasn't a wise or kind thing to say and I'm disappointed in myself".
"I apologise to those who were hurt," she concluded. Purser previously admitted to her Twitter followers that she had anxiety about her sexuality. "I know what it's like to have anxiety about it," she tweeted on April 11.
"Especially trying to come to terms with it and my faith. It can be really scary… But it's gonna be okay. You're going to be okay. No, you're going to be great."
