Millie Bobby Brown has opened up on her 'unhealthy' situation with TikTok star Hunter Ecimovic.

On Instagram live he made several comments of a crude nature about the actor.
At the time, Millie Bobby Brown's representatives said in a statement to E Online: "Mr. Ecimovic's remarks on social media are not only dishonest, but also are irresponsible, offensive and hateful.
"Instead of engaging in a public discourse with him through the press or on social media, we are taking action to ensure that he stops this behavior once and for all."
The now 18-year-old has told Allure that she 'felt very vulnerable'.
She said: "No one on the set knew I was going through this. So it was kind of nice to be able to just deal with that myself and no one else knew.
"Then it was harder when the whole world knew.
"It was a year of healing.
"When you get publicly humiliated this way, I felt so out of control and powerless.
"Walking away and knowing that I’m worth everything and this person didn’t take anything from me, it felt very empowering.
"It felt like my life had finally turned a page and that I actually had ended a chapter that felt so f***ing long.
"Ultimately, all I wanted to do within my career is help young girls and young people out there know that I, too, go through things.
"I’m not this perfect person that is selling skin-care products and [who is] in Stranger Things.
"I absolutely have made wrong decisions."
She said: "I need to know more. And I know our generation needs to know more."
UNILAD has contacted a representative for Hunter Ecimovic for a comment.
At the time, Hunter refused to apologise for his actions.
He said: "You guys don't know anything. You guys are just following after one person saying one thing, like, everybody hates him so that everyone's going to hate me.
"You guys just follow each other like a big duck followed by little ducks. Whatever the top thing is, you just follow up.
"You guys don't know the story of anything, and I will never apologise. I hope you know that."
