I know I’ve been quiet for a couple weeks, since Oct. 11,” the “Legally Blonde” actress said in an Instagram video. “You deserve to hear from me directly, and I’m sorry it’s taken this long.” “There is a legal matter going on and my lawyers have asked me to not say anything about that day, and I’m listening to them. I take this very seriously,” she continued. “What I can tell you, though, is very simple and the truest thing I know about myself.
