RIKY RICK INTERVIEW GOES VIRAL

FRIEND WEIGHS IN ON STAR’S DEPRESSION
Meanwhile Riky Rick’s close friend Jo Lurie has spoken out on witnessing Riky Rick spiral through depression.
The TV producer and podcaster recalled an incident years ago which she claims gave insight into his daily life
She tweeted: “I spent 6 months on set with him in 2017 watching him go through this. His struggle and the pressure to continue to be Riky Rick through depression, weighed heavy”
Jo posted a screenshot of her notes at the time that read: “One of them who I truly love and respect, whose name I’m obviously not going to mention, once explained to me after I found them hiding in a corner during the lunch break, how they needed to withdraw from people in order to salvage some of their energy to be able to put on their #blessed face and do their job
“They were so deeply depressed, it would take so much out of them to pretend to be ok. They would just take tiny breaks wherever they could, just to be alone and be real. The fakeness was overwhelming for them”.
