Ed Westwick, best known for his role as Chuck Bass on hit show Gossip Girl has been accused of rape by Kristina Cohen. The actress, made the accusation in a Facebook post on Monday.
The alleged incident took place some three years ago when she had been brought to Mr. Westwick's house by an unnamed 'producer' who she was seeing at the time. Mr. Westwick apparently suggested that they should all 'fuck', at which point she evidently felt uncomfortable enough with the situation to wish to leave. However she was corralled into staying and went for a nap in a spare room. She awoke to find Mr. Westwick on top of her and describes his shocking actions in graphic detail in the post.
She reveals that she was pressured by the producer she was dating at the time not to say anything that had happened as Ed would destroy her career.

Her decision to come forward comes following the myriad allegations of various forms of sexual harassment levelled at Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey and several British politicians.
As of the time of writing Ed Westwick has yet to respond to these allegations.
