Kate Beckinsail denounces sexual harassment in filming in the wake of Blake Lively’s complaint

Kate Beckinsail, the British woman denounces that she has also been attacked on film set and confides she was forced to do a photo shoot immediately after being expelled. In the wake of the sexual harassment complaint recently filed by Blake Lively against Justin Baldoni, actress Kate Beckinsail uploaded video on Instagram where she said that, while she has never met Livly and Baldoni, their situation has “intensified… this machine that comes into effect when a woman complains about something legally offensive, annoying, harmful, anything, in this industry.” CORVERSE Beckinsail says she has been “attacked” and that she has “feeled upset” on film set, where she was also insulted and called a “bitch” for daring to complain. In the video, published Sunday but no longer exists in her Instagram profile, Kate Beckinsail tells her own negative experiences from Hollywood, saying she has “47 million stories” like this. He says: “At the age of 18, [me] sexually harassed someone I truly trusted. I went to the protagonist, who is known as the female supporter, and I said this happened and she replied: “No, it didn’t happen”. I went to another actress, crying, and I said when this man attacked me and they said to me again: “No, he didn’t attack you”. CORVERSE Kate Beckinsail says she has been found twice in “unsafe situations” on film set during filming full of fights. “There is a certain kind of actor excited when he can hurt a woman during a series of shooting fights. And I got hurt, to the point where there were MRIs proving it. And in fact, what happened was that they caught me and made me feel like I was the problem, they blamed me and I ostracized… as soon as I mentioned there was a problem.” Kate Beckinsail specifically describes the behavior of a “drunk” male co-star whose inability to learn his role, caused extensive delays in filming, resulting in her being unable to see her little daughter during their duration. “Obviously this man is going through something, and I understand it, but… the studio’s answer was to give me a bike so I could walk around the studio space while I waited. Then, of course, they called me “a bitch”. At some point during a shot, they called me “a stupid bitch”. Beckinsail also remembers that she had to deal regularly with her body image. At one point she heard a group of people say, “What the hell are we gonna do? How do we make her attractive?”. She also says that she was given a “so strict diet and exercise program” that she stopped having menstruation. In another case, he was forced to take part in a photo shoot the next day of a miscarriage. “I said, ‘I don’t want… I’m bleeding out of a miscarriage’ and they said, “You have to, or you will be sued.” In the long caption to her video, Beckinsail adds: “It is very, very easy to incite hatred against the actors, as was shown in the returns of the talks… between those involved and the crisis group involved in this case. Complaints of abuse should not cause more abuse, especially at work where there should be inviolable protection and should not be expected of women who have been hurt, offended, hurt, disgraced or abused in any other way.” “There are too many victims of this, many of whom I know personally, and it is really the responsibility of both men and women in our industry to participate in its elimination for good,” he concludes.
