Opinion: I made mistakes over Rebel Wilson, and will learn from them | Andrew Hornery
On the weekend I wrote about the background leading to Rebel Wilson’s social media post revealing her new relationship with another woman. I have learned some new and difficult lessons from this and want to be upfront with you about the things I got wrong.
Writing a weekly column about the personal lives of the rich, powerful and famous comes with its own unique set of challenges. A celebrity romance is a happy story. When I started hearing from friends and associates of Rebel that she was in a new relationship, as a gossip columnist I could see that was potentially a story, as her previous boyfriends had been.
“While I realise Rebel’s partner has not been mentioned as yet, I have several sources who have confirmed their status and I have enough detail to publish. In the early hours of Friday morning Sydney-time, Rebel posted on Instagram about finding her “Disney Princess”, Ramona Agruma, which I, along with the rest of the global media, wrote about.
