UPDATE: Nov. 10,Philippines Archives 2017, 10:36 a.m. EST Updated to include a statement on Westwick's Instagram account.
Another sexual assault allegation has come out against former Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick, this time from actress Aurélie Wynn.
A few days after Kristina Cohen spoke out against Westwick, claiming he raped her three years ago, Wynn — who went by the stage name Aurelie Marie Cao before retiring from her acting career -- wrote a Facebook post explaining she "went through a very similar ordeal" with the actor.

"...Like Kristina, I said no and he pushed me face down and was powerless under his weight," Wynn wrote. "I was wearing a one piece bathing suit that he ripped, I was in complete shock, I am also very tiny."
Wynn said when she told her boyfriend at the time, former Glee star Mark Salling — who was arrested in 2015 on child pornography charges — that she was raped by Westwick, he blamed her and ended their relationship. The actress also revealed that her friends urged her to keep quiet about the incident to avoid being "that girl."
Wynn explained that she kept the story to herself for years but after seeing other allegations arise in the industry and hearing Kristin Cohen's recent claim she was inspired to come forward with her account.
Cohen recently shared an experience similar to Wynn's, claiming Westwick sexually assaulted her while she was napping in a guest room at the actor's house. She ended her post by writing, "I hope my coming forward will help others to know that they are not alone, that they are not to blame, and it is not their fault."
In Wynn's post she mentioned Cohen directly, thanking her for giving her the courage to speak. "I am so incredibly thankful all of this is finally coming to light and that there is justice in the world. I believe you Kristina Cohen and thank you for speaking up so eloquently and really encompassing what young female actresses have to go through at the hands of men like Ed Westwick," Wynn wrote. "Without you I would not have had the strength to speak up publicly about my ordeal."
In the wake of the dozens of sexual assault allegations about Harvey Weinstein, many members of Hollywood have come forward to share their personal stories.
After Cohen's allegations came out, Westwick released a statement of denial on his personal Instagram account.
