Lili Reinhart just confirmed some very upsetting news
Say it isn't so.
Say it isn't so.
Lili Reinhart is one of the most talked-about women in the world right now, with her starring role as Betty Cooper in Netflix mystery teen drama Riverdale catapulting her to fame.
With the cult show now in its third season (seriously, we're hooked) and a high profile relationship with her co-star Cole Sprouse, it's hardly surprising that 22-year-old Lili is one of the women of the moment.
But along with the glitz and glamour comes pressures, stress and a lot of online negativity to deal with.
This is something that Lili addressed this week, announcing that she would be taking a break from social media.
‘Do people on Twitter ever get tired of being so negative and disrespectful to literally everyone and everything? Are they really that miserable?’ she wrote announced in a series of messages on her Insta Stories.
‘There's hate everywhere, but especially on Twitter. It's like a cesspool for evil 15-year-olds who don't know what the hell they're talking about and have nothing better to do.’

She continued: ‘Taking a break from that toxic site and the people on it who feel the need to constantly attack me, my cast mates, my relationship, and Riverdale.’
‘Hate to break it to you online trolls: spreading your hate and overall negativity online won't make you any less miserable.
Enjoy your screen break Lili, but please come back soon!
