Emmy-Winning Director Sacha Gervasi Accused Of Sexual Harassment
According to reports, Sacha has been accused of harassing a designer by the name of Diana Lands Nathanson. It is alleged that he fondled and harassed her on more than one occasion. This was in and amongst his wife, Jessica de Rothschild, apparently being pregnant with their first child.
When the birth happened, Diana alleged that Sacha pinned her on a table before attacking and imprisoning her. Although that may have been the case, Sacha has denied doing anything of the sort.
In an official statement on behalf of Sacha, his attorney Jeremiah Reynolds said the following: “[This is] nothing but a desperate attempt to distract from the lawsuit already filed by my clients against Ms. Lands for trying to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars in property they paid her to purchase on their behalf and for the damage and destruction she negligently caused to their home.”
Nevertheless, things have not been helped by claims that Diana and Sacha were dating. Her lawsuit suggests that they had dated for a short period of time during which he allegedly groped her. But given that Diana was friends with Sacha’s wife, it is claimed that she overlooked the incident. After all, she was working for them by redesigning the pair’s home.
And after having one such meeting with a contractor that involved Sacha, that is when things allegedly got out of control. The suit added: “Gervasi pushed his erect penis against Lands’ body and tried to stick his tongue in her mouth. Lands kept turning her head and saying, “No, don’t do that.”
These are some very serious allegations, which is why a full investigation is needed in order to get to the bottom of this. Therefore, the only thing left to do is let the authorities come to a reasonable conclusion based on the evidence at hand.
