The shocking allegation has sparked a heated online discussion about possible abuse and mental health-related stigma in China.
Zhao Lusi, who is also known as Rosy Zhao, has been dubbed one of China’s “top flowers born after 1995”.
The 26-year-old debuted in the variety show Mars Intelligence Agency in 2016 and became a household name for appearing in television series like The Romance of Tiger and Rose and Hidden Love.
She reportedly fell ill due to depression last December and had to cancel and suspend ongoing work.
