I’m sooo sad to learn that Fresh Off The Boat was a toxic environment for Constance. I loved that show…. I’m sad to hear it wasn’t a delight for her to make like it was for us to watch. That’s completely unfair.

This type of behavior happens in all cultures with people from all backgrounds. It’s so maddening and it must be talked about and stopped. No-one has a right to sexually harass anyone. It’s so disgusting. Good on her for speaking up.

At that time, when she sent out the Tweet, no one knew what she was going through. All people saw was her complaining that FOB was being renewed. Fans of the show probably felt betrayed and thought she was being ungrateful and how the other cast and crew would lose their job. I think that's why she got so much backlash. I'm glad she is able to now give her side of the story.
