Evan Rachel Wood was raped twice, she revealed in a new interview.
“I’ve been raped. By a significant other while we were together,” the “Westworld” star recently told Rolling Stone. “And on a separate occasion, by the owner of a bar … I don’t believe we live in a time where people can stay silent any longer. Not given the state our world is in with its blatant bigotry and sexism.”
Wood was previously linked to Katherine Moennig in October 2014. She was married to “Fantastic Four” star Jamie Bell, with whom she shares a son, from 2012 to 2014, and dated Marilyn Manson off and on from 2006 to 2010.
Wood also reflected on her relationship with Manson, whom she dated when she was 18 and the rocker was 36.
“I met somebody that promised freedom and expression and no judgments,” she said of her romance with Manson, which began when he was still married to Dita Von Teese. “And I was craving danger and excitement … Most teenagers are searching for identity, and I was thrown into a situation where I was supposed to have that already figured out.”
She continued, “Then you’re demonized for figuring it out and getting messy. People would call me a whore when I walked down the street, and you can’t not be hurt by that.”
But the former child star adds that her skin has gotten thicker with age.
“I couldn’t handle all the attention when I was younger,” she said. “But I feel like I’m in a place where I’m not going to collapse under the pressure.”
