Actor Wentworth Miller, who was the subject of an insensitive meme posted by an online publication on Monday, has revealed in a Facebook post how depression led to him needing to overeat. Taking a break from acting in 2010, the Prison Break star revealed that he was going through a really low time in his life: “It could have been anything. Drugs. Alcohol. Sex. But eating became the one thing I could look forward to. There were stretches when the highlight of my week was a favourite meal and a new episode of Top Chef. Sometimes that was enough. And I put on weight. Big f***ing deal.”
Mean: The meme that was posted online
The Lad Bible had on Monday posted a photo of the actor during his leaner acting days alongside one from 2010 when he had put on some weight and captioned it, “When you break out of prison and find out about McDonald’s monopoly.”
