The Traitors star Freddie Fraser has said he feels “a little numb” after being robbed in London, with his laptop and an SD card carrying his uni work stolen.
The 22-year-old shared the update on Instagram, saying the robbery happened on Monday, 26 October. He told followers the theft had wiped out material he and others had worked on the previous day.
“Life’s been really testing me lately. All of our footage from yesterday is gone, and we put so much effort into it!” Fraser wrote.
He added that the incident had left him struggling and warned he might be quieter online for a while.
Fraser, who came out as bisexual recently, wrote: “I feel a little numb, to be honest, so apologies if I don’t post as much as I usually do. Feeling pretty low.”
Freddie goes back to uni
Earlier this year, Fraser, who is dating Bailey Ramsden, started studying an MA in Broadcast Journalism at City St George’s, University of London.
He spoke of how freeing it had been since coming out, saying the reaction had been “amazing”.
Fraser explained that school had been a more difficult experience for him, and had made it hard to come out because “you’re scared of being judged, or you’re scared to be bullied”.
Speaking of his new classmates, he added: “To be so open with them about who I am, my identity and all that, without even feeling that they’re going to judge me… It’s A, progress, and B, I feel like I’ve reclaimed a part of myself that used to be so scared.”
Freddie Fraser and boyfriend Bailey Ramsden
Fraser, best known for appearing on series three of BBC smash hit The Traitors, came out and hard-launched his relationship with Ramsden all in one go in a sweet Instagram post in August.
Speaking to Joe Bagg on the Not My Bagg podcast days later, he revealed: “I kind of realised I was bisexual maybe six or seven months ago. It’s quite a new thing.”
He explained how Ramsden had slid into his DMs, after Fraser had liked some of his photos on Instagram.
Fraser said of their first date: “We went to 14 Stories in London, it’s a nice little restaurant. He took me there, and then he was like, ‘Wouldn’t it be so cliche if you just asked me out?’ A few wines later I was like, ‘Do you want to be my boyfriend?'”
He went on: “I really feel like I’ve got a best friend that’s also my boyfriend. Also, I feel I could be more myself with him because I feel like sometimes when I’m with girls, I have in my head I have to stop being as feminine or whatever because they’re gonna judge me and not want to be with me … With him, I can really be my true self.”
