The Get Him To The Greek actor, 48, is facing allegations of rape and sexual assault, dating back to the height of his fame, from four women.
She says he groomed her, referred to her as ‘The Child’ and assaulted her during their three-month relationship.‘It’s certainly had an impact on my relationships going forward… it was my first sexual experience, I felt used up, I felt cheap, I felt dirtied by the whole thing and so then I went on to have another series of relationships with people that were, for want of a better word, sleazy.
‘Because I just thought if I go for bottom of the barrel I can never be disappointed and I can never be hurt because I know to expect the absolute worst.’ She added: ‘I missed a lot of school, I was not in a good place mentally, I was just recovering from an eating disorder and I didn’t complete my education, I didn’t finish my A-levels.’‘First of all, I think it’s insulting, and it’s laughable that he would even imply that this is some sort of mainstream media conspiracy.
‘He’s not outside the mainstream – he did a Universal Pictures movie last year, he did Minions, a children’s movie. He’s very much part of the mainstream media, he just happens to have a YouTube channel where he talks about conspiracy theories to an audience that laps it up. ‘It may sound cynical but I do think he was building himself an audience for years of people that would then have great distrust of any publication that came forward with allegations. He knew it was coming for a long time.‘Then, as for him denying that anything non-consensual happened, that’s not a surprise to me. These men always deny any of these allegations brought to them. I knew he would. He did say it was consensual but he didn’t deny that he had a relationship with a 16-year-old.
