Famous actor from Hollywood - Kevin Spacey faces losing his home along with millions in debt.
Actor Kevin Spacey, once a famous name in Hollywood, shared his struggle with debt and impending loss of his home in Baltimore, Maryland. He emotionally spoke to Piers Morgan about the inevitable auction of his property, as he can't pay his bills. Unable to recover after being sued for sexual assault, Spacey shared he has empty pockets and millions in debts now.
His downfall began in 2017 when actor Anthony Rapp accused him of sexual misconduct during the #MeToo movement, which unleashed a wave of further allegations against the two-time Oscar winner. The effects were disastrous, with Netflix ending their series "House of Cards" collaboration and removing his scenes from the film "All the Money in the World."
Spacey defended himself against the allegations, maintaining his innocence in court and facing several trials. Although two men got legal victory against him, some cases couldn't be brought to trial due to expired statutes of limitations. In a London trial in 2023, Spacey was acquitted of sexual assault claims, but the court painted him as a man who exploited his power to sexually assault others. In contrast, Spacey maintained that his interactions were consensual and "gentle."
Now, attempting to clear his name and endure the aftermath of the allegations, Spacey described how he made mistakes but never intended to be aggressive. While he admitted to crossing boundaries and touching people inappropriately, he claimed to be unaware of their discomfort during those moments.
In May 2022, Spacey was widely praised for a London trial verdict that saw him cleared of sexual assault charges, proving his reputation to be innocent. The prosecution's efforts to paint him as an abuser of power and sexual predator fell flat in court as the judge found no evidence of assault. However, Spacey continues to fight the stigma and misinformation about his sexual encounters, insisting on their consent.
