Drake Bell seemingly believes in the power of giving second chances.
Taking to his social media handle on X (formerly known as Twitter), the 37-year-old star confessed that he has forgiven Rider Strong for his past mistakes.
Updating fans on his relationship with the actor, Drake penned, “I just had the most amazing conversation with @RiderStrong we are all healing together. I have nothing but love and forgiveness for him.”
Earlier it was revealed that the 44-year-old acting sensation wrote letters to the judge in support for Brian Peck, Drake’s abuser, during his trial in 2003.
Lifting the lid from the dark side of his career as a child star, the Drake & Josh star confessed Investigation Discovery’s new docuseries Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV that he had been sexually abused by Brian Peck.
This announcement comes after Drake Bell admitted being content with his decision to speak against child abuse.
Appearing on the Man Enough podcast, Drake disclosed why he decided to open up about his ‘childhood trauma.’
“The more that I’m able to talk about it, and the more that I’m able to articulate my thoughts just for myself, in my own mind,” he said in the chat.
He went on to explain, “There is a big weight that feels has been lifted and is freeing,” and moved to a new topic.
