“When I met Harvey Weinstein, he was RUDE. In the NASTIEST tone he said ‘Who told you to get pregnant?!’ And rolled his eyes in disgust,” Jill wrote on Twitter.

“I stayed away from him after. Who acts that way towards a pregnant woman??” Jill continued. “Power to all the women bullied by assholes. Power in general.”

Jill’s tweets come after Lupita Nyong’o wrote an op-ed about her own experience with Harvey in The New York Times. According to Lupita, Harvey asked to give her a massage in his house with his children in another room. When she refused, he gave her a copy of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency book series before she left and told her she’d be perfect for the show.

Nearly 50 women have accused Harvey of sexual harassment or assault since both The New York Times and The New Yorker recently published bombshell reports of Harvey’s alleged sexual misconduct over the years. “Now that we are speaking, let us never shut about this kind of thing,” Lupita wrote in her op-ed.
