Drake Bell Recalls How Josh Peck Was 'So Sensitive' During Their Private Talk After His Sex Abuse Reveal


Drake Bell shared how Josh Peck had been 'so sensitive' when he privately reached out to support him after the actor came forward about suffering sex abuse during his time on Nickelodeon as a child star.

Though court records detailing the extent of Drake's abuse were sealed at the time, the "Found a Way" singer recalled how the "courtroom was full for Brian" and said that Hollywood is like a "small" town where there's a lot of "talk." Josh eventually released a statement to Instagram, where he expressed his support to not only Drake but also to the other alleged victims who had come forward about suffering abuse. “I reached out to Drake privately, but I want to give my support for the survivors who were brave enough to share their stories of emotional and physical abuse on Nickelodeon sets with the world.”
