After the allegations of sexual harassment against Jeffrey Tambor, the writers of the hit series 'Transparent' are working on writing his character out of the series. The writers on the award-winning series were already working on Season 5.
Few days back, a second woman, Tambor's transgender co-star Trace Lysette, has accused the actor of sexual assault. In a Facebook post, she claimed inappropriate behaviour that Tambor allegedly engaged in while she worked with him. Lysette, who plays yoga instructor Shea in the show, claims Tambor pressed up against her in a sexual way during filming and repeatedly made lewd sexually suggestive remarks. She said she felt his p**** against her as he made "quick, discreet thrusts" at her body after standing on her feet.
Tambor has issued a statement, which read, "I am aware that a former disgruntled assistant of mine has made a private post implying that I had acted in an improper manner toward her. I adamantly and vehemently reject and deny any and all implication and allegation that I have ever engaged in any improper behavior toward this person or any other person I have ever worked with. I am appalled and distressed by this baseless allegation."
