Earlier in the day, Suni thanked fans for their support on Twitter.
“just wanted to thank everyone for the amazing love, support, and kind messages over the past couple of days. it’s not easy to speak up on personal matters but in this case I knew sharing what happened would make others feel less alone,” she wrote.
