Cara Delevingne, the English model and actress, has recently spoken out against the paparazzi’s invasion of her privacy while she was at an airport, saying that the experience led her to seek rehab treatment for her mental health. The 29-year-old star shared photos taken by the paparazzi on Instagram, showing them crowding around her and shouting as she tried to make her way through the airport.
Delevingne wrote in her Instagram post that she was “treated like a zoo animal” and that the paparazzi “ruined” her trip. She explained that she decided to seek rehab treatment after the experience left her feeling “traumatized and overwhelmed.”
Delevingne’s experience is unfortunately not uncommon among celebrities, who are often followed and photographed by paparazzi without their consent. The invasive nature of paparazzi culture can have serious negative effects on the mental health and well-being of those who are targeted.
Delevingne’s decision to speak out about her experience and seek treatment is an important reminder of the need to prioritize mental health and take steps to protect oneself from the harmful effects of paparazzi culture. It is also a call to action for the media and society at large to respect the privacy and dignity of public figures and to recognize the impact that invasive practices can have on their mental health.
