Constance Wu, known for her lead roles in Fresh Off The Boat and Crazy Rich Asians, said she attempted suicide three years ago after receiving backlash for tweets she wrote about the hit TV show.

In a statement shared on Twitter, Wu said she was making her return to social media after a three-year hiatus, during which she wrote an autobiographical book, Making A Scene.
