Courtney Stodden discusses the online bullying she faced after marrying Doug Hutchison at 16 in the Hulu documentary 'IMPACT x Nightline: Confessions of a Child Bride.' She reveals the depth of her struggles, including a near-suicide attempt linked to cyberbullying, referencing harmful comments made by public figures, including Chrissy Teigen. Stodden expresses a wish to comfort her younger self, while Teigen has publicly apologized for her past behavior. This highlights the broader impact of online harassment and the need for accountability among public figures.
I did actually almost succeed at committing suicide because [the cyberbullying] was a huge part of it. I had a suicide letter written.
Saying this to a child when you're the queen of Twitter, it was so much.
Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bulls-t in front of the entire world.
I would love to grab my younger self and give her a hug.
