Jake Wood’s Public Statement

He wanted to express gratitude for her grounding presence. As we know, Jake had a ‘stressful’ week of online backlash. Hence, he appreciates her unwavering love and support.
The actor’s caption read as, “As ever, my wife always manages to sum up things ‘better’ than me. There’s been a rollercoaster of emotions in our household over the last few days. We are all creatives in our family and we love to see and encourage others to create- whatever form their art takes. And whatever discussion that art brings up, we enjoy and debate.”
Several of his co-stars defended Jake on the post. Diane Parish who plays Denise Fox wrote, “Nothing defines what you do or who you are other than the heart and soul of your intentions. And I for one know how pure that is, Jake.”
Elsewhere, Jo Joyner commented, “Anyone who knows you and your family knows that you are all creatives, with the best of intentions and kindest of hearts. Conversation is good, discussion, debate are all healthy. Change and understanding are powerful. Haters gonna hate Jake, stick with the rest of us, we’ve got you.”
