Comedian Rosie Jones, known for appearing on *Taskmaster*, has revealed she was attacked on a train. Three people threw wine at her and fellow comedian Lee Peart during the incident, which Jones described as both ableist and homophobic.
Peart and Jones shared details of an attack in an Instagram story yesterday—which Jones then reposted—explaining that three people had initially made fun of their voices before throwing red wine at them.
Peart started a video by mentioning he was traveling with someone he liked, then quickly showed a red wine stain on the train wall.

He explained the incident stemmed from being verbally attacked with prejudiced and hateful language, specifying ableist and homophobic slurs. Jones added that three people ridiculed their voices and threw wine at them, calling the whole experience a pointless act of aggression.
Jones, who lives with cerebral palsy, shared a post on Instagram for World Cerebral Palsy Day, revealing a recent and upsetting attack.
In her recent post, Jones discussed how well her charity, The Rosie Jones Foundation – which offers counseling to people with cerebral palsy – is doing, and also spoke about a separate incident.
Jones wrote that today was meant to be a celebration of everything positive about living with cerebral palsy.
Last night, on the train ride home after our show, Lee and I experienced discrimination because of our disabilities and sexual orientation. People made fun of how we speak, yelled offensive slurs at us, and even threw a plastic wine bottle at us.
This experience sharply highlighted how my cerebral palsy sets me apart and, sadly, how some people try to use it to hurt me. They attempt to make me feel powerless because of my disability, but I refuse to be seen as a victim.
People with cerebral palsy deserve to feel welcome and included, not like outsiders in a world that isn’t designed for them. They have the same rights as everyone else, and that’s something that should never be forgotten.
In her closing remarks, Jones expressed pride in living with cerebral palsy and highlighted her charity work as her most significant accomplishment so far.
The post ended with a powerful message: “We’re dedicated to supporting and uplifting people with cerebral palsy, ensuring they always feel connected and valued. When we work together, we’re strong. I’m so proud to be part of this community.”
