Ruby Rose Reflects On Trauma And Delayed Disclosure
Following her initial post, Rose continued to engage with users and shared additional context about why she chose to speak publicly now. “Before I open up about something incredibly raw and traumatic, I tell myself ‘it’s ok, you don’t need people to believe you, you just need to get it out of your poor body, before it gives you cancer,’” she wrote in one response to a fan who offered support. “But then I see this post and tears consume me, in a good way. Thank you.”
Rose also shared that the alleged incident occurred when she was in her twenties and that she is now 40 years old.
“I’m now 40,” she wrote. “It has taken almost 2 decades to say this publicly. Though I am so grateful to have made it long enough to find my voice, it just shows how much of an impact trauma and sexual assault takes. Thank you for seeing me.” Her posts highlighted the long-term emotional impact she associates with the experience.

As questions continued from social media users, Rose provided further details about the alleged incident, which she said occurred at the now-closed Spice Market nightclub in Melbourne.
She also noted that it can be “harder” to speak about situations involving woman-on-woman violence.
In one of her responses, she described the alleged encounter in detail: “She saw me ‘resting’ on my best friends lap to avoid her and bent down, pulled her underwear to the side and rubbed her disgusting vagina on my face until my eyes snapped open and I projectile vomitted on her,” she wrote.
The statement has circulated widely online as part of the ongoing discussion surrounding the allegations.
