Harry Potter star raped at age 14

-

Jessie Cave says she was raped at age 14. The Harry Potter actress spoke about the experience with her sister Bebe Cave on her podcast We Can’t Talk About That Right Now. Chatting about who “had it worse” during their teenage years, Jessie said: “I mean, come on, I was raped. I get the trump card.” As Bebe lightheart­edly accused Jessie of “pulling out that trump card a lot,” the 33-year-old actress replied: “To be fair, acne and braces are bad, but I think rape at 14 is pretty bad. By your tennis coach, who you trusted, a position of power. I was fit and I was very able with a tennis ball. But I was still taken advantage of, and he was sent to jail, so it’s fine.”
