A string of celebrities have decided to ‘cancel’ their Fourth of July plans amid the Supreme Court's decision to overturn constitutional rights to abortion in the US.

A slew of celebrities have taken to social media to protest Fourth of July celebrations following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe V. Wade.
