Ed Westwick & His GF Have Reportedly Put Their Engagement Plans On The Backburner Amidst Rape Allegations
Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick and his model girlfriend Jessica Serfaty have reportedly put their engagement plans on hold amidst allegations that the actor raped two women.
According to Perez Hilton, Ed and Jessica were “looking at engagement rings” whilst on a recent trip to Paris, however the allegations have put a temporary spanner in the works.
Ed has since taken to Instagram to refute the allegations stating that he did not know the women making the claims against him, and that he has “never forced [himself] in any manner, on any woman” and “certainly never committed rape.”
Jessica has also taken Twitter to defend her boyfriend, writing: “I know you, I know the truth. Such sadness in my heart. I love your kind gentle soul. Bless.”
I know you, I know the truth. Such sadness in my heart. I love your kind gentle soul. Bless.

The former America’s Next Top Model contestant also took to Instagram to subtly comment on the allegations by posting a snap of a wall with the word “bullsh*t” written on it.
Despite the fact that his partner is sticking by him, it seems that Ed’s acting projects are now in doubt, with the BBC pausing filming on his new comedy series White Gold and pulling his upcoming drama series Agatha Christie’s Ordeal By Innocence from its schedule.
