    Isn't Jameela Jamil one of the people who drove Caroline Flack to suicide?

    "Jamil has been in a relationship with musician James Blake since 2015.[88][89] She came out as queer after her appointment as a judge of voguing reality series Legendary received backlash, as voguing ball culture is rooted in black and Latino LGBTQ communities in New York.[90][91][92][93]

    In interviews, Jamil has mentioned several bee attacks in her life, including being hit by a car at age 17 when running away from a bee.[94] In 2015, Jameela claimed that while she was interviewing musician Mark Ronson in the Hollywood Hills, the 'biggest swarm of killer bees' she had ever seen made them retreat.[95] Ronson contradicted Jamil's version of events, describing 'one or two individual bees' and walking 'slowly inside' in response.[96] Jamil related that while filming the first season of The Good Place in 2016, she was chased by a dark swarm of bees and again got hit by a car.[97] In 2019, Jamil states she ran away from bees while crossing the road to the UN headquarters to give a speech.[98]

    In several UK interviews in 2013[99][100] as well as on the 1 October 2018 episode of Good Morning America – complete with video footage of her falling [101] – Jamil stated that she lost a tooth, smashed her nose, broke her elbow and several ribs, and got a concussion when she slipped and fell on her face while running around the set with Olly Murs at a recorded event leading up to the pair acting as presenters at the Orange Rockcorps volunteer's London concert of September 2010.[102] Jamil stated she glued her broken tooth together with eyelash adhesive after the incident, which has apparently held on as of 2020.[103][104]

    On 3 October 2019 in interview on HardTalk, a BBC News Channel programme, Jamil stated that she had been raped several times in her life and that in the past she looked at blaming women, but has changed to blaming the societal patriarchy that produces that scenario.[105] Jamil has also stated that at age 12 she was attacked by a man on Oxford Street, the main shopping street in London - recounting, "[He] grabbed my vagina [...] in my school uniform at 3.30pm, so hard and for so long, that I bled and had to throw both of us against a wall to get him off", that as a teenager, three men ejaculated onto her leg on escalators on the London Underground on three separate occasions, and that she has been the subject of many lewd acts by men since age 11.[106] She also recounted that she was dragged into a car in Belsize Park as a 15-year-old, and was saved because someone saw her predicament.[75]

    In 2015, Jamil mentioned that she left the BBC Radio 1 Official Chart Show because of a breast cancer scare in 2014,[107] and had lumpectomies on both breasts, in which she says she lost a 'large chunk' of breast tissue.[108][12] However, in the 3 October 2019 Hardtalk interview, she concurs with the interviewer that she had a breast cancer scare 'in 2016', and that this precipitated an immediate move to Los Angeles after 'a week' waiting for test results that showed it to be a single 'benign lump'.[105] Separately in a segment recorded in 2016 for Fashion Targets Breast Cancer, she instead describes having 'recently' experienced 'a lump in her breast that showed signs of precancerous cells'.[109] Also in October 2019 in the same month as the HardTalk interview but not in the interview itself, she stated she suffered from actual cancer twice, having cervical cancer in 2016 and 2019.[110] Jamil also revealed she has the autoimmune disease Hashimoto's thyroiditis in 2019.[111]

    In 2020, a social media user accused Jamil of having Munchausen syndrome and falsifying or exaggerating specific public claims of health issues. For instance, Jamil claimed to have had a peanut allergy at birth and had recently posted an image of a peanut snack, though it is possible for peanut allergies to fade as a person ages.[112] Jamil denied that she has the condition and the social media user clarified that they are not a medical professional.[113][114]


    Jamil at the Grammy Awards, 2020
    Jamil has also stated she has experienced anxiety, depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder in various interviews.[115][116] On 10 October 2019, as part of World Mental Health Day, Jamil stated she survived a suicide attempt six years prior.[117][118] In an episode of the talkshow Red Table Talk in 2020, Jamil revealed that she attempted suicide for the second time eight years ago due to a nervous breakdown.[119] She also stated that she partook in EMDR therapy to treat her post traumatic stress disorder prior to her move to Los Angeles."

    That's an incredible number of events!
