Things aren’t looking good for Ed Westwick…
In an interview posted on Tuesday, Rachel Eck told BuzzFeed News the Gossip Girl star sexually assaulted her the night before the 2014 Oscars at the Sunset Marquis hotel in West Hollywood. She is the third woman to accuse Westwick of misconduct.
According to the creative producer (who was 23 years old at the time of the alleged incident), she received a text from ex-boyfriend/Australian film producer Kaine Harling to hang out.

She recalls:
“On the way, he told me he was with his friend Ed Westwick.”
When she arrived at 2:30 a.m., Westwick “asked me to invite a friend to hang out with the three of us.” Because it was late, all of her friends were already asleep. That’s when:
“When I didn’t bring a girl for him he turned his sights on me.”
Allegedly, the actor would “try to kiss me or kind of push me up against the wall,” whenever Harling left them alone.
Even though Eck “pushed off” Westwick and told him she was dating Harling, “it got worse and he got more handsy.”
When she tried to tell Kaine about his advances, the Australian producer allegedly told her Ed “didn’t mean it.”
After Rachel told Harling she “was definitely leaving,” she was told Ed wanted to apologize.
When she went into the villa’s bedroom with Harling, Westwick allegedly “pulled me onto the bed and aggressively groped” her breasts.
“I shoved him off as quickly as I could and left.”
Eck “never felt so uncomfortable in a situation like that in my entire life.”
As we reported last week, after Kristina Cohen and Aur├â┬⌐lie Wynn accused Westwick of rape, the actor released a statement denying the “unverified and provably untrue social media claims.”
