Heather Morris Recalls How Late Glee Co-Star Naya Rivera Confronted Her About Eating Disorder – E! Online

“She, of course, was the first to speak up about it and just say, ‘I don’t know what’s going on with you, but I feel like something is happening’ and just was trying to be there in a way, and I just completely blew it off,” The Masked Dancer alum said. “Like, ‘No I’m fine, of course I’m fine.’ So, there was nothing else after that. There was nothing to be spoken about because she probably got the hint: Like, ‘oh, OK. Well if she doesn’t want to talk about it, she’s not ready for this conversation.’ And that’s who she was, she was just always ready to talk about it.”

Reflecting on the experience, Morris said she and fellow Glee alum have more candidly embraced conversations on their wellbeing since then.

“We’re all like that now,” Morris said. “It just takes that time and place in your life for you to realize, life’s too short.”
