In the interview, Pedro revealed that he was only concerned about whether or not calling out the author would really help the situation. The actor explained that his motivation to call her out came from wanting to protect his sister, Lux Pascal.

Pedro said, “The one thing that I would say I agonized over a little bit was just, ‘Am I helping? Am I f—ing helping?’ It’s a situation that deserves the utmost elegance so that something can actually happen, and people will actually be protected. Listen, I want to protect the people I love. But it goes beyond that. Bullies make me f—ing sick.”

Lux recently shared what she really thinks about her brother.
