DYLAN ‘HURT’ BY MOSES’ ACT
Woody Allen’s daughter tweets her sadness about brother’s support to father’s sexual misconduct
Dylan Farrow, daughter of actor Mia Farrow, has said that she was ‘hurt’ to see her step-brother Moses Farrow accuse his mother of assault. The 32-yearold, responded to the essay, written by his step brother, in a tweet, saying her brother sought to “impugn my mother who has only ever been supportive of me and my siblings.” She called his comments an attempt to discredit the claims of the assault by Allen. “I’m so sorry he’s doing this,” she wrote. Dylan’s younger brother, Ronan Farrow too, posted a statement on Twitter in which he said his brother’s essay was part of a “repeated campaign to discredit” his sister. He said, “My mother did a great job raising us, and none of my siblings with whom I’ve spoken ever witnessed anything but love and care from a single mom who went through hell to keep her kids safe.” He said Moses had said much the same in the past.
Filmmaker Woody Allen’s son, Moses defended his father from allegations of sexual assault made by his sister. In a nearly 5,000-word post, Moses elaborated further on claims he had made in previous interviews that his mother was physically abusive to him and her other children and that she coerced her daughter Dylan into accusing Allen of assault. “I’m a private person and not at all interested in public attention,” Farrow wrote in the post titled, A Son Speaks Out. “But, given the incredibly inaccurate and misleading attacks on my father, I feel I can no longer stay silent as he continues to be condemned for a crime he did not commit.”In 2014, Dylan wrote an open letter alleging Allen had sexually abused her when she was 7,which her father denied.
