Ruby Rose has spoken out for the first time since announcing plans to write a tell-all memoir exposing her feud with The Veronicas.
The long-standing feud between Ruby and pop twins Lisa and Jessica Origliasso looked set to continue with the release of the actress’ new book.
The Orange Is the New Black star, 36, dated Jessica from 2016 to 2018, during which time the sisters’ relationship became so strained they were on the verge of estrangement. Following the couple’s split, the Origliassos mended bridges and made a series of public statements criticising Ruby.
Ruby announced several weeks ago she had started writing her book, and promised to expose the pair – whom she did not name but called ‘the sisters’ – for ‘how horrific’ they allegedly were to her.
She also claimed the ‘truth’ she was writing would ‘p**s a lot of people off’.

‘Book writing. The truth. It will piss a lot of people off… but maybe you should have been better?’ she wrote on Instagram.
‘Excited to be free. Excited to tell the truth. On the sisters? You’re first. How horrific you were.’
The actress and DJ concluded: ‘Imagine mistaking kindness for weakness…’
Appearing on Nova FM’s Fitzy & Wippa on Tuesday, the actress and model addressed the cryptic Instagram posts, saying she shared them because she was writing about her trauma from past relationships at the time.
She explained that one old photo in particular, which showed her with Jessica at the Pitch Perfect 3 premiere, brought back painful memories.
‘Because that’s what I was writing about at the time,’ she said.
‘To be honest, I stumbled across a picture from Pitch Perfect 3, the premiere. And I’d forgotten that… just how I look, I’m emaciated.’

‘I’m just dissociated, I look so broken, and I got filled with rage, because I was like, “How did I let it get that bad?”‘ she said.
‘And so that’s why I wrote what I wrote. But what the book really is, and what matters to me to kind of change the narrative of it, [is] it’s not some sort of tell-all, like Prince Harry… it’s sort of, “Here are some things that happened that are pretty hard.”‘
Ruby clarified it will not be a ‘revenge book’, but she instead hopes to inspire others.
‘I want it to be more of a inspiring book, as opposed to, you know, it’s not a revenge book, and it’s not a gossip book,’ she said.
‘It’s definitely not a book I should be writing without my therapist.
‘But the other parts are more about other things that have been said about, you know, when I broke my neck and I was almost paraplegic, and getting controversy for things that didn’t happen, because that’s just how Hollywood can be.
‘There’s a lot that I’ve stayed silent on because I was already at a place where I didn’t want to be adding flame to the fire. I think that everyone was going to keep doubling down on these things because I was silent.
‘You know, it’s like if you ignore the bullies… I got taken advantage of because people knew my hands were sort of tied in that I don’t want to create more of a fuss of a situation.’

The feud between Ruby and The Veronicas was laid bare after Jessica broke off their on-again-off-again relationship in 2018.
The two women briefly dated in 2008 before rekindling their romance in 2016, only to break up again two years later.
Speaking on The Kyle and Jackie O Show a few months after the split, Jessica said she was in ‘a very complex relationship’.
She added: ‘I’m still trying to come to terms with the reality of it every day so it’s really hard to explain to anybody.
‘There was just so much that happened, so much that I can’t even get into it.’
Not only did the relationship not end amicably, but while Jess was dating Ruby for almost two years, she was fighting with her twin sister and bandmate Lisa.

The Origliasso sisters (pictured in Los Angeles on June 25, 2019) said their band almost fell apart due to their family rift while Jessica was dating Ruby Rose
Lisa explained the siblings’ relationship became extremely strained during the time Jessica was with Ruby, and for a whole year they didn’t talk or perform together.
She said the period when they didn’t talk was ‘heartbreaking’, with Jessica adding: ‘When you have a twin, you’ve got back-up for everything.
‘But sometimes to evolve as an individual, and to find the love for myself I needed to find, I needed to just go through [that] experience for myself.’
The sisters admitted that from 2016 to 2018, the band almost fell apart due to their family rift, but a love of music eventually brought them back together.
