Many of us remember Hosea Chanchez for his role as the quarterback football player Malik Wright on The CW/BET sitcom, The Game. He’s known as a fun-loving guy who is well-liked by the rest of his cast and fans alike. Little did we know that this easy-going star was fighting a battle in his mind that no one ever knew.

Hosea took to Instagram to speak about something that he had been trying to forget for decades: revealing to his followers that he was molested by his friend’s father when he was just 14-years-old! He admitted it was a hard topic for him to talk about and talked about intentionally forgetting about the matter to prevent himself from being judged.
