.MichaelaCoel shared the real-life experiences that inspired Arabella’s story in IMayDestroyYou:
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
“She’s a writer and she takes a break from work, she goes out for a drink, her drink is spiked, and she’s sexually assaulted by strangers.It was at this point that Fallon noted how impressed he was with the show’s expert balance of comedy alongside its serious themes and topics, prompting Coel to reflect on how the tone evolved from her “own reality”.
“I was sort of realising that something bad had happened, and my friend was taking care of me, and as I looked at him, I noticed he was playing Pokémon Go on his phone.” “It’s rape and Pokémon Go and I don’t know what to do with those two things. But, here they are, in one room.”Coel previously explained to Radio 1 Newsbeat that she found the process of writingto be incredibly “cathartic”, as it helped her to confront and make sense of the emotions she experienced after her own assault.
