An actress who stars in popular CW hit The Originals has revealed that she faced a torrent of online abuse from cruel trolls who told her to ‘die’, simply because her character kissed someone on the show.
While some fans were thrilled to see actress Leah Pipes’ character Camille finally kiss the show’s protagonist Klaus, played by actor Joseph Morgan, after weeks of tension, some viewers were left furious because they were hoping Klaus would reunite with his former flame, The Vampire Diaries favorite Caroline, who is played by actress Candice Accola – and they were quick to take it out on Leah in a series of vitriolic tweets.
And after enduring nasty comments because of the fictional storyline, Leah, 27, spoke out against the bullying on Twitter, writing: 'It's fun to have different opinions about ships, but I just woke up to my entire feed filled with someone saying they hope I die of cancer.'
