Kevin Spacey issued a public apology after actor Anthony Rapp accused him of making a sexual advance towards him 31 years ago. “This story has encouraged me to address other things about my life,” Spacey said. The two had known each other for their Broadway work; Rapp, a child actor at the time, was 14, and Spacey was 26, BuzzFeed reported. Reports detailing allegations of ongoing sexual harassment and abuse by movie mogul Harvey Weinstein prompted Rapp to speak publicly about Spacey; he had told close friends about the encounter throughout the 1990s and 2000s, BuzzFeed reported. “As those closest to me know, in my life I have had relationships with both men and women,” Spacey wrote.
