And I did that for five months.

And, really, I was sort of scared of Kevin because hes quite an aggressive man.

Hes extremely charming and brilliant at what he does really impressive, etc.

He holds a room remarkably.

But I was young and susceptible, and he targeted me, no question.

Numerous other accusations followed and Pearce was very aware of the headlines.

I just blurted it all out, he said.

And of course then it all hit the press.

Im sort of in that weird position of going, I dont want all the focus on this.

I dont want it.

But at the same time I dont want him to get away with what he gets away with.'

He also successfully defended himself against a lawsuit brought by Rapp.

He told Chris Cuomo on NewsNation, Im trying to show that Ive listened.

Ive got the memo.

I feel very strongly that whatever mistakes Ive made in my life, that I paid a price.
