A second woman has accused Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick of rape.
Aurélie Wynn, an Taiwanese-American former actress and model, claims the 30-year-old forced himself upon her at a house he was renting in LA in July 2014.
She said she was invited over by a girl friend who was dating his roommate, a Glee cast member.
The group hung out until 5am when they went to bed in separate rooms. She says Westick came into her room, pushed her face down, ripped off her bathing suit and raped her.
‘I was powerless under his weight,’ she wrote in a lengthy Facebook post on Wednesday.

Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick has also been accused of raping 27-year-old actress Kristina Cohen when she visited his home three years ago
Wynn said she told her then boyfriend Mark Salling, a former Glee actor who was convicted for possessing child pornography, about the rape but he discouraged her from speaking out and left her.
She said her friends also discouraged her, telling her she did not want to be ‘that girl’ – but she found the courage to tell her story after Westwick was accused by another woman on Monday.
Actress Kristina Cohen, 27, publicly accused British actor Westwick of raping her three years ago.
Wynn said: ‘I wanted just to reinforce Kristina’s claim as I believe them to be true.’
Westwick denies knowing Cohen and say he has never raped anyone. He is yet to comment on the second rape allegation. His rep has been contacted by MailOnline.
Kristina Cohen took to Facebook on Monday night alleging that Westwick forcibly held her down and raped her at his Hollywood Hills home in February 2014.
LAPD is investigating Cohen’s claims.

Denying Cohen’s claims on Tuesday morning, Westwick Tweeted: ‘I do not know this woman. I have never forced myself in any manner, on any woman. I certainly have never committed rape.’
Cohen claimed she went to the 30-year-old actor’s home for dinner with a producer – who she had briefly dated in 2013 – when Westwick allegedly suggested a threesome. She said she ended up taking a nap in his guest bedroom.
She didn’t name the producer in her Facebook post, but later identified him to the Hollywood Reporter as Kaine Harling.
‘I was woken up abruptly by Ed on top of me, his fingers entering my body. I told him to stop, but he was strong. I fought him off as hard as I could but he grabbed my face in his hands, shaking me, telling me he wanted to f*** me,’ she wrote.
‘I was paralyzed, terrified. I couldn’t speak, I could no longer move. He held me down and raped me.’
The actress said she had tried to convince Harling, who was friends with Westwick, to leave prior to the alleged assault but he had asked her to stay a while longer.

Westwick strenuously denied the rape allegations on Tuesday morning in a statement on his social media
‘I wanted to leave when Ed suggested ‘we should all f***’. But the producer didn’t want to make Ed feel awkward by leaving,’ she said.
‘Ed insisted we stay for dinner. I said I was tired and wanted to leave, trying to get out of what was already an uncomfortable situation. Ed suggested I nap in the guest bedroom. The producer said we would stay for just another 20 more minutes to smooth everything over, and then we could leave.’
Cohen told the Hollywood Reporter that after the alleged assault she was shocked and confused. She ended up leaving the following morning and said that Harling had left earlier in the night.
She said she spoke to Harling after the alleged assault but claims he blamed her.
‘The producer put the blame on me, telling me I was an active participant,’ she wrote on Facebook.
‘Telling me that I can’t say anything because Ed will have people come after me, destroy me, and that I could forget about an acting career. Saying there’s no way I can go around saying Ed “raped” me and that I don’t want to be ‘that girl’.’
Harling was a producer on Ladies Like Us – the TV series Cohen starred in.

‘My mom was dying of cancer and I didn’t have the support system or time to process and deal with the aftermath of the rape. I buried my pain and guilt to make space for the onslaught that came after my mom’s death, just three months later,’ she said.
‘Even now, I grapple with feelings of guilt. Unfounded worry that in some way I was to blame. I don’t know where these feelings come from.
‘I’ve grown considerably in the three years since my assault, so to revisit is painful.’
