She recorded a video from hospital and told her followers: ‘I am better. I have been really unwell for a really long time, and I just want to be honest with everybody, I have been struggling.
‘So, I’m in the hospital at the minute, I’m gonna get discharged soon and hopefully get to continue with my life.
‘I’m gonna take a little bit of a break for myself and I want to encourage others, if you are struggling, please do yourself a favour. Take a break, stop being so hard on yourself.
‘And people used to always tell me not to be so hard on myself, and I never really, really knew what that meant.’
Ruby added that she was struggling amid the ‘existential threats’ as well as being ‘rage-filled, frustrated, angry’ before seeking help for ‘all this intergenerational trauma bundled up inside me,’ adding: ‘I was carrying the weight of the world on my back.’
She explained: ‘And now, I’m at a point where I have a diagnosis, and I will talk to you about that at another time. But I have a diagnosis, and I am relinquishing myself and forgiving myself and drawing a line in the sand.
‘I can’t carry on the way that I’ve been carrying on. I need to change. So, that’s what I’m trying to do.’
Ruby thanked Netflix and Shonda Rhimes, Bridgerton’s executive producer, for ‘saving her’ by giving her the opportunity.
The actress also revealed she had been forced to drop out of a West End run in Running With Lions after contracting Covid-19 and struggling with her mental health.
