Olivia Colman is wholeheartedly with Kit Connor following his forced coming out.

Indeed, after the broadcast of the Netflix series

Heartstopper

in which he plays Nick, a popular rugby player who discovers his bisexuality, the actor was harassed by many Internet users who asked him to reveal his sexual orientation.

Others have gone so far as to accuse him of casting doubt in order to boost his career.



Words that prompted him to publicly declare his bisexuality.

“Wait a minute before continuing.

I am bisexual.

Congratulations on forcing an 18 year old boy to come out.

I think some of you did not understand the point of the series.

Bye,” he wrote in a tweet last month before deleting his account.

A message greeted by Olivia Colman who plays the role of the mother of the character of the actor in the series.

Proud

"I'm so proud of him.

But I'm not with the way people harassed him.

I think people should be allowed to go at their own pace,” Olivia Colman said in an interview with

Variety

.

“In any case I remain incredibly proud of him for handling this as a young man in the spotlight.

It is unfair.

But he is amazing.

He is a magnificent human being.
