John Barrowman, a well-known actor from the television series Celebrity SAS, has opened up about a difficult time in his life when he felt publicly shamed and punished. The 2021 Torchwood actor had to issue an apology for being accused of repeatedly exposing himself on set, which caused him to have thoughts of suicide.
According to a woman who worked as a runner on the early seasons of Doctor Who, Barrowman would often expose himself as a joke, which he found funny. Another woman also claimed that it was just something he did regularly and was accepted by those around him. After these allegations surfaced, Barrowman released a statement apologizing for any upset he may have caused with his exuberant behavior, but he also clarified that it was never meant to harm anyone and was only done to entertain his colleagues.
The BBC also released a statement condemning any inappropriate behavior and encouraging individuals to come forward with any complaints or concerns. However, the accusations took a toll on Barrowman, who felt like he had been cancelled and lost the trust of those around him. In an interview with The Mirror, he shared how he had thoughts of suicide and even considered ways to harm himself. But the thought of his loved ones, including his husband, ultimately stopped him from going through with it.
Barrowman also revealed that he lost a lot of trust in people, as some individuals who he thought would support him were too scared to do so. He explained that the accusations against him were blown out of proportion and that what was meant to be a harmless prank among cast members was turned into something much more serious. He felt humiliated and punished for something that was never intended to harm anyone.
The actor also emphasized that he would never do anything to harm anyone, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation. He wanted to make it clear that he was not a sexual harasser and did not want to be perceived as one. However, on a recent episode of Celebrity SAS, it was revealed that Barrowman quit the show after only two hours on the first day. This came after reports that he left the show early, but he urged people to watch and see the truth for themselves before believing any unsubstantiated information.
Barrowman also used this interview as an opportunity to raise awareness for mental health and encourage anyone struggling to seek help. He shared resources for emotional support, such as the Samaritans helpline and PAPYRUS, a prevention organization for young suicide. He also reminded readers to reach out if they have a celebrity story to share, as the entertainment team is always looking for new and interesting stories.
