Wesley Han, the non-binary actor from“Power Book II: Ghost,”is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. They’ve filed a lawsuit against the Soho Grand Hotel in New York City after a shocking incident during a private event. According to the claims, Wesley was forcibly removed from the women’s restroom by a security guard who was apparently on a mission to police the bathroom situation that night.
This wasn’t just an embarrassing episode but a battle for dignity and respect. Dressed in women’s clothing, Wesley was questioned by the guard, who even asked other women if they had seen a man enter. The final straw came when the security guard escorted Wesley to the men’s room, all while they say they were denied the simple courtesy of washing their hands. As Wesley seeks damages for the emotional distress and humiliation, it’s clear that inclusivity in public spaces still has a long way to go. This incident opens the floor to discussions on how society manages gender identity—one would hope that we’re beyond bathroom policing in 2026!
