Heather Morris says Naya Rivera ‘only person honest’ about Lea Michele’s ‘Glee’ behavior

At the time, there were several stories swirling on the internet alleging Michele had been less than a great coworker on the musical series, which ran from 2009 to 2015.
“And I’m like ‘Guys, she’s pregnant, and all this stuff is going around,'” Morris told Pellegrino. “It’s true and I don’t know if maybe we were victims of bullying and that’s a typical victim thing to do, is to blame yourself, which people were saying.”
Michele was expecting her first child with husband, Zandy Reich, at the time.
Morris said the stories about Michele were true, but “the only person who was honest about it was Naya (Rivera),” adding, “it was something that was very hush-hush on set” and that Morris didn’t feel it was her place to say anything at the time.
“We absolutely could have stepped up and gone to the Fox execs and said how we felt about the situation, and nobody really did,” Morris said. “And so now we are living in a culture where it’s acceptable to go do things like that, whereas I think many people were very scared.”
CNN has reached out to reps for Michele for comment.
