During a Mrs. Doubtfire reunion event in Los Angeles on Friday, May 29, Jakub, alongside her co-stars Matthew Lawrence and Mara Wilson, shared how Williams' openness about his struggles with mental health influenced her.
At the event, Jakub said Williams, "talked to me because obviously I was honest with him and he and I talked a lot about my issues with anxiety and depression and he shared a lot about his struggles in life too."
Jakub also noted that she has been, "greatly influenced by the fact that [Williams] was so accepting and loving and vocal with me about what he had gone through.”
“I was very upset about this. Being kicked out of school when you're 14 years old is a little bit upsetting,” she said. "Robin was the kind of person that if he saw that any one of us was upset or not okay, he would check on us. He asked me what was wrong. I explained what had happened and he wrote a letter to my principal, which I still have. It was an incredibly kind, lovely letter saying, ‘Lisa is just trying to pursue her career and get her education at the same time, so can you please support her in that?'"
“It's a story about the fact that Robin saw some kid he was working with who he did not have to take the time to care about, and he wrote this unbelievable letter,” she continued. “And he really kind of went out of his way for me, which he did for all of us in various ways. And we all had different kinds of connections with him. And he went through the trouble to connect with us as individuals.”
“I can tell you it did not happen on every set,” she added.
