Paige Discusses Suicidal Thoughts Following Photo Leak Scandal

Paige has been through a lot in the past year. She’s had airport confrontations, tons of rumors based on her, and she’s been dealing with recovering from an injury the entire time as well.

But it turns out the leak of her nude photos and videos might have been enough to push her to the breaking point. It’s just a great thing that she was able to pull through and she thanks the WWE fans for helping her.

WWE’s Anti-Diva recently appeared on Lillian Garcia’s Chasing Glory podcast where she discussed her mindset surrounding that tragic situation regarding the leaking of her nude photos and videos.

“I had a ton of people destroying me. Cyberbullying is a real thing. 50 percent of that is what made me want to kill myself. These people don’t have a life. I usually just snap out of things, but a girl wrote to me who told me I was her biggest inspiration. … Just having that support system made me kick out. I do have the best fan base.”

It’s great that Paige was able to rely on her fans during such a horrible time. Plenty of people were very worried about Paige as she persevered through that trying time and it looks to have paid off.

Now Paige is back and seems to be focused as the leader of Absolution. But there was a time when the hackers, leakers, and trolls almost had Paige to a point that nobody should get to. She was cyberbullied and contemplated ending her own life which would have been a travesty.

It’s amazing Paige was able to pull through that awful situation that nobody deserves to be in. Hopefully, she can be a beacon of hope for any future people in the same situation to be there for someone just like her fans were there for her.
