Third Woman Accused Ed Westwick of Sexual Assault
- 7 years ago
A third woman has come forward to accuse Ed Westwick of sexual assault.
The accusation comes from a report from BuzzFeed, and it involves a 23-year-old executive assistant at the time, named Rachel Eck. She says she had just moved to Los Angeles and was excited by the idea she might get back together with her ex – an Australian film producer.
So they went out and stopped at Ed Westwick’s multi-bedroom villa in West Hollywood at around 2:30 a.m. on the night before the 2014 Academy Awards.
Sometime later in the night, Eck claims Ed tried to kiss her or kind of push her against a wall whenever they were alone… and act that happened a few times over a seven-hour period.
Eck said she pushed off Westwick each time and told him she was in a relationship.
But as the night wore on, the Gossip Girl star got more handsy, and at one point he pulled her onto the bed and aggressively groped her. She shoved him off as quick as she could and left.
In the wake of the first two allegations, the BBC announced that a miniseries staring Ed would not air until an investigation was completed.
