Woody Allen‘s daughter has tried to stay out of the ongoing family drama.
But given the renewed scrutiny the filmmaker is facing over allegations that he sexually abused his other daughter, Dylan Farrow, Bechet Dumaine Allen now feels the need to speak up.

The daughter of Allen and his wife Soon-Yi Previn broke her silence on the controversy in a recent Facebook post, making it clear that she supports her father.
The 19-year-old wrote:
“I never wanted to involve myself in the social media debates involving my father, but there comes a point when I realize that I can either continue pretending that none of this is going on, or stand up for him. He has been nothing but supportive and loving, and now it is my turn to support him.”
Bechet also linked to a lengthy blog post by Moses Farrow, in which her uncle (Allen’s adopted son) claimed that the allegations against the Annie Hall director are false.

Moses went on to allege that Dylan was brainwashed by their adopted mother Mia Farrow into thinking Allen abused her. Benchet, in her post, thanked Moses “for sharing his personal experiences so that people may begin to learn the truth about our family.”
Dylan, for her part, has maintained her stance on the abuse and argued that Moses’ recent post “contradicts years of his own statements.”
Sounds like this civil war will never end for this dysfunctional family. Read Bechet’s full post (below).
