Wentworth Miller gathered attention, especially from the ladies, when he landed the role of Michael J. Scofield in "Prison Break." Wentworth Miller had become a heartthrob for a long time, but when "Prison Break" ended in 2009, nothing much was heard about Wentworth Miller.

But just as everyone sort of moved on from the "Prison Break" series and fans have found new choices of heartthrobs, The LAD Bible posted a since-deleted fat-shaming meme of the "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller back in March. The controversial meme compared two photos of the "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller-one shirtless from the actor's run on "Prison Break" and another, from years later. It's captioned, "When you break out of prison and find out about McDonald's monopoly."
In a heartfelt post on his Facebook page, "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller explained the photo. "First and foremost, I was suicidal," "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller explained. "This is a subject I've since written about, spoken about, shared about. But at the time I suffered in silence. As so many do. The extent of my struggle known to very, very few."
The "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller added that while other people may have resorted on substance abuse, alcohol and sex, the actor admitted that food was his chosen drug. Obviously, his food addiction lead him to put on a lot of weight and landed him on The LAD Bible's page.
Although the fat-shaming incident was definitely a hard pill to swallow for "Prison Break" Season 5 star Wentworth Miller, it appears like time does heal all wounds as the actor didn't show any sign of distress during the San Diego Comic-Con 2016 event. The actor was all happy and proud to be a part again of "Prison Break" Season 5 and he even hinted that he can definitely do more seasons.
