Jeffrey Tambor, star of Arrested Development and Transparent, has been accused of sexual harassment by his co-star Trace Lynette.
Lynette has alleged that the incident occurred on the set of Transparent, while the two were shooting a scene together. She described a moment that occurred while she was standing on the soundstage.
“He came in close, put his bare feet on top of mine so I could not move, leaned his body against me, and began quick, discreet thrust back and forth against my body. I felt his penis on my hip through his thin pajamas.”
The incident occurred after Tambor had allegedly told Lynette “My God, Trace. I want to attack you sexually” after seeing her in costume. Lynette further alleges that actor Alexandra Billings was present to hear this remark.
Tambor has also been accused of sexual misconduct by Van Barnes, who worked as his personal assistant. Amazon has said that the fresh allegations “will be added to our ongoing investigation.”
