Edebiri also said she struggled with the church’s idea that her gay and Muslim friends would not make it to heaven.
She said this brought her “so much sadness” and led her to take “a break” from church.
“The was horrible for my anxiety,” she said.
“I was petrified of death. I was petrified of the rapture. It was genuinely breaking my brain and giving me so much stress and sadness. I was just like, ‘I need a break.’ ”
The actress was born in Boston on October 3, 1995. She is the daughter of a Barbadian mother and a Nigerian father.
Her journey in entertainment began in high school while taking part in open mic challenges.
She attended New York University, where she initially intended to study teaching before switching her major to Dramatic Writing.
In 2022, Edebiri featured in the comedy-drama series ‘The Bear’, for which she won a Golden Globe Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and a Primetime Emmy Award.
In addition to ‘The Bear’, Edebiri starred in the 2023 teen comedy ‘Bottoms’.
She also served as a writer on the FX horror comedy ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ in 2022.

Husband Murders Wife, Takes Own Life
By Mario Deepromoter
A former reality TV star has allegedly been shot de@d by her husband in their luxury home before he turned the gun on himself.
Police reportedly found the body of Paulina Lerch, 33, who appeared on Top Model in her native Poland twice, after her family failed to get in touch with her for over a week.
Police suspect her husband Sławomir, 47, shot her dead before k!lling himself at their home near Poznan City, Poland, on Sunday, September 1. He was reportedly found lying next to Lerch with fatal self-inflicted gunshot wounds.
The house was locked from the inside and a revolver was discovered next to the young couple’s dead bodies.
