A few weeks ago, when Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein had been alleged for sexual harassment by many women in Hollywood, it had opened the pandora box as victims came out in public and told their stories. Gal Gadot had tweeted, “Bullying and sexual harassment is unacceptable! I stand by all the courageous women confronting their fears and speaking out. Together we stand. We all are united in this time of change.”




Gal was then applauded for putting her foot down to oust alleged sexual predator, Brett Ratner. But it turns out that our reel life Wonder Woman might not be as wonderous in real life. An anonymous person has recently come out and shared her story on Medium and says that Gal Gadot had shamed her after she had been raped by a common friend.

“Gal is more than a bully; she is a predator who enables predators.”

She narrated a story when Gal had shared an apartment with her and other young models in Milan, Italy, 13 years ago. She wrote,

“Thirteen years ago, I shared an apartment with Gal Gadot for two months in Milan, Italy. Several young girls lived in the building, all under contract with the same modeling management company.”

She had revealed that Gal’s roommate, a 15-year-old model was raped and Gal allegedly stated, “that the girl was stupid — for going to the wrong club, and for trusting the man who brought her there.” She then wrote about her equation with Gal:

 “Gal and I spent most of our free time together. We shared food, clothes, and makeup. We went to the gym. We went shopping and tanning together. We went on photo shoots together. I made her a mix CD. I sang her to sleep. I watched her smoke constantly out of the window. We shared body insecurities, and she shared sex stories. She made sure to appear confident, knowledgeable, and successful — even then. She fed me information about Israel. Whenever she discussed Palestinians, she showed deep hatred.”

She recalled the times when Gal used sex as a weapon. She claimed,

“Gal set us up on dates with men who expected sex in exchange for the lavish meals they fed us, although we never slept with them. She would pick smaller men, and threaten them after dinner. They complained, and she chased them off with more threats. She would laugh about it later. She used sex as a weapon. “

The writer goes on to narrate a soul-shattering experience when one of Gal’s friends drugged and raped her.

“I woke up in Yaniv’s bed, naked. He had removed my clothes when I was unconscious. I remember him climbing on top of me. I could just barely say “no,” and “this isn’t right.” Then I blacked out. I woke up again while he continued raping me. He was restraining my arms so I couldn’t move. It was violent. There was pain. I will never forget how he looked in that dark room. I will never forget the absolute panic I felt. It was terror. I thought he would kill me next. His rape was full of hate. He did not look at me. I woke up the next morning, groggy and delirious. I asked Yaniv what happened. I wanted to hear him say it. “We had sex,” he said, and shrugged. “I thought you knew.” “I told you no,” I said, quietly. “You told me, no, but your body told me yes,” he said. That line still haunts my mind, 13 years later.”

 The author talks about trying to find solace, but it then went haywire.

“She took me down to the basement. It was cold, mechanical, and frightening. We were alone. Then her anger exploded,” the writer continued. She stood over me, intimidating and loud, blaming me for what happened. Her eyes were fire. I had already felt small and violated, but she shamed me into feeling obsolete. I felt extremely dirty. Already in shock, I disassociated from my body. I can’t remember most of her words. I remember being in utter terror of her anger.”

The writer alleged that Gal called her out for being raped instead of being supportive:

“She referred to the rape as ‘your mistake.’”




She then concluded the letter by comparing Gal’s acts to that of Bill Cosby who has been in a legal mess for sexually harassing women.

“Gal has succeeded in a predatory industry because she is a predator. She is unafraid to destroy others in pursuit of her ambitions. Like any strong predator, she knows how to target, destroy, and consume the weakest and most vulnerable. Bill Cosby put on a sweater and built trust as a Huxtable. Gal Gadot put on a breastplate and became an icon for women. A predator in a costume is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. When Gal Gadot says that she supports sexual assault survivors, do not believe it. Her actions speak louder than words.”
