Letitia Wright is no longer holding back. After years of being dragged for her alleged stance on anti-vaccination, the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is hitting back on her critics over their "personal vendetta" against her. This week, the 29-year-old star shocked fans when she penned a post directed at The Hollywood Reporter's malicious report, saying her chances of getting awards for her performance in the MCU blockbuster have been hurt by her controversy.

Now, it looks like Wright isn't done coming after the outlet and writer Scott Feinberg. In a new post via her Instagram stories, the Shuri actress has once again expressed her dismay over the article for one specific reason. According to the actress, she doesn't want to get associated with people mentioned in the article who have a history of abuse and sexual misconduct.

She later made a stunning revelation that she's also a victim of sexual abuse and is still undergoing therapy for her past trauma. Letitia wrote: "as someone who is currently in therapy to overcome my own experience of sexual abuse. This is not okay. It is incredibly triggering and alarming that @hollywoodreporter, @scott_feinberg & all at this publication have made it clear to myself & my team that they will not apologise or take my name out of this very dangerous and disgusting article. To compare me to these cases of abuse and sexual misconduct is extremely alarming.It's been two years & I've apologised two years ago,I've endured enough, especially from this publication and others. Editor in chief, why haven't you fixed this?"

Of course, we do not condone abuse in any shape or form and we're hoping Letitia will overcome her trauma in the future. As for the outlet's malicious writeup, I think we can all agree that it's time to either take it down or at least reach out and apologize to the actress because clearly, it has caused her a lot of pain.

Meanwhile, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is still screening in cinemas worldwide.
