‘Right now I feel like I’m relearning how to be in the world and it’s an excruciatingly slow process but I’m trying to do the things I can,’ she wrote in an Instagram post.
‘I’m not sure about the future, but right now, I am grateful and ok.’
Gallagher was arrested after security guards alerted police, with him fronting Central Local Court on September 10 charged with stalking and intimidation with intent to cause fear as well as trespassing and common assault.
An email sent to ABC employees stated Gallagher was believed to have tailgated staff walking through the building’s high-security doors.
‘Following this incident, we have increased security guards at Ultimo. There may be increased checks on IDs, security attention at all building entry points and escalated physical security improvement works,’ the email said, Sydney Morning Herald reported.
