“I Do Not Know This Woman”: Ed Westwick Responds To Rape Allegations Made By Kristina Cohen

Actress Kristina Cohen has accused Gossip Girl star, Ed Westwick, of sexually assaulting her three years ago, saying she had buried the pain and guilt of it until now. But the actor as since responded, saying he doesn’t know Kristina and has never raped any woman.

In a statement made on her Facebook page, Kristina alleged, “I was woken up abruptly by Ed on top of me, his fingers entering my body. I told him to stop, but he was strong. I fought him off as hard as I could but he grabbed my face in his hands, shaking me, telling me he wanted to f*ck me. I was paralysed, terrified. I couldn’t speak, I could no longer move. He held me down and raped me.”

However, Ed has just responded to the allegation saying, “I do not know this woman. I have never forced myself in any manner, on any woman. I certainly have never committed rape.”
