Kaya Scodelario Opens Up About Suffering ''Horrific" Sexual Assault at Age 12
Kaya Scodelario is a sexual assault survivor, but she's not letting that label define her.
Now months later, Kaya opened up to Metro U. K. about the downsides she didn't expect to face by coming forward publicly.
"I will be asked about it forever now," Kaya continued.
"I hope it doesn't define me but it will always be under my name and I accept that - but I am proud I was brave enough to do it and I am grateful for the support I had from friends."
"And I remember thinking that if I was 12-years-old and I had this horrific thing happen to me but I saw a woman I admired speaking up about it, it would have made me feel less guilty, and it would have inspired me to think, 'This won't hold me back, this is something that has happened but I am not a victim.'"
"So I thought if I can do that for one person then I owe it to my 12-year-old self," Kaya concluded.
