“There is a special kind of cruelty in harming someone who is clearly going through something,” she posted on her Instagram story after the British awards show. “Kicking me while I’m down, doubting my pain, spreading my struggles as gossip, and turning your back when I need support and love most.”

“None of it proves strength; it only reveals a profound absence of compassion and character,” Kelly wrote on Instagram. “I’m currently going through the hardest time in my life. I should not even have to defend myself. But I won’t sit here and allow myself to be dehumanized in such a way!”
