High School Musical: The Musical: The Series star Joshua Bassett has opened up about facing routine sexual abuse as a child.
“I experienced sexual abuse a lot in my childhood,” Bassett said. “I didn’t remember that until last year, which is pretty insane.
Bassett said that he had repressed the memories to the point where he only recalled them in 2020.
The former teen star, who is best known for starring opposite Olivia Rodrigo in the Disney Plus spin-off series, spoke about the abuse for the first time in a new interview with GQ.
