Rachael Gunn, who competed at the Paris Olympics, expressed her devastation from backlash after losing her battles, requesting privacy for her loved ones and the dance community.
Gunn acknowledged the positivity from supporters but noted the unexpected flood of hate was overwhelming and damaging in an Instagram post after her Olympic experience.
The Australian Olympic Committee condemned a petition against Gunn's selection, emphasizing it was based on falsehoods and aimed at inciting public hatred rather than factual concerns.
AOC CEO Matt Carroll stated that Gunn's selection was through a credible and transparent process, responding to claims in a petition that had gained significant attention.
