Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick tweets statement following second rape accusation 

A second woman—former actress Aurélie Wynn—has now accused former Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick of rape, the second accusation against the actor over the last few days. As reported by Deadline, Wynn wrote a Facebook post today in which she said Westwick sexually assaulted her after a party in July of 2014, in an incident very similar to the one reported by actress Kristina Cohen yesterday.

Wynn said she came forward with her story as a way of showing support for Cohen, writing, “I am so incredibly thankful all of this is finally coming to light and that there is justice in the world. I believe you Kristina Cohen and thank you for speaking up so eloquently and really encompassing what young female actresses have to go through at the hands of men like Ed Westwick. Without you I would not have had the strength to speak up publicly about my ordeal. #metoo”
