Wednesday star Percy Hynes White is speaking out for the first time after being accused of sexual assault online.
“Hey everyone. There’s something I need to clarify,” the 21-year-old actor began a Tuesday, June 6, Instagram Story post. “Earlier this year, somebody I’ve never met started a campaign of misinformation about me online. Because of this, my family has been doxed, and my friends have received death threats.”
The Gifted alum claimed that in addition to people using “underage photos” and “examples of me acting in character” to present him as “hateful,” his friend “Jane was falsely portrayed as a victim,” and that her “attempts to set the record straight have been ignored.”
White wrote that “the rumors are false” and he won’t accept people portraying him as “someone bigoted, or criminally negligent of people’s safety.” He continued: “These are the kind of baseless, harmful claims that can create mistrust toward victims.”
He concluded his post by calling the spread of misinformation “distressing,” as well as thanked his fans for their support. “Harassment of my family, friends and coworkers needs to stop please,” White wrote. “Thank you for taking the time to read this.”
Earlier this year, the hashtag #cancelpercy gained momentum on Twitter after a user posted a series of tweets accusing the Pretty Hard Cases star of predatory behavior, sending images of himself to minors and using a racial slur during a performance. The Twitter thread has since been deleted.
While some fans have called for White’s Wednesday character, Xavier Thorpe, to be recast in the show’s upcoming season, other fans have shown their support for White using the hashtag #savepercy.
