Disturbing new text evidence from stuntwoman suing Kevin Costner over ‘unscripted' rape scene and ‘abuse of power'
A STUNTWOMAN'S lawsuit against Kevin Costner claiming that she was subjected to a "violent" unscripted rape scene has been amended to include disturbing alleged texts. 3 Kevin Costner the director, star and cowriter of the Horizon series of Westerns, has denied the allegations Credit: Getty 3 Kevin Costner's attorney has rejected the lawsuit, and claimed it has no merit Credit: Alamy 3 Hollywood stuntwoman Devyn LaBella, 34, is suing star and director Kevin Costner Credit: Getty The former gymnast who has worked as a Hollywood stunt performer since 2020 on the likes of Barbie and Yellowjackets filed her lawsuit on May 27 in Los Angeles Superior Court. She has alleged that she was subjected to an unscripted rape scene without proper warning, consent or protocols while shooting Costner's film Costner, 70, who was acting as well as directing on set for the movie, has denied all the allegations. His lawyer has denied there was "anything sexual in the shot." LaBella amended her lawsuit on June 18 to include alleged text messages, reported the READ MORE US NEWS The publication claimed that it had seen new evidence submitted against Costner and his production firm Territory Pictures. The shoot included a planned sexual assault scene, shot in May of 2023, that LaBella performed much of because of its violent and physical nature, the initial lawsuit said. LaBella's lawsuit said she was the stunt double for one of the Horizon leads, Ella Hunt, 27, throughout the Western. For the initial scene, protocols were followed, including meetings, rehearsals, the presence of an intimacy coordinator and minimal crew, the lawsuit stated. Most read in The US Sun But it alleged that the following day, in an unscripted scene with no warning, rehearsal or choreography, Costner directed an actor to pin LaBella down on a wagon and simulate rape. The lawsuit claimed that Costner asked for many takes as he experimented with the violent action and did not make it clear when a shot was beginning or ending. Hollywood Earnings Showdown: The Rock Tops 2024 The amended lawsuit includes alleged text messages LaBella claimed to have exchanged with the film's intimacy coordinator, Celeste Cheney, the day after the alleged scene was shot. LaBella wrote in the alleged text, dated May 3, 'Hi Celeste... I wanted to discuss yesterdays abomination when we both have a chance. "Are you around today? I was put in a really wrong position and it's really affected me." INTIMACY According to the Weekly, Cheney replied, "Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear this, Devyn. Yes, of course, let's talk it through." In a further alleged message, LaBella reportedly asked the coordinator, 'Why was there no intimacy coordinator?' The Weekly claimed that she also allegedly texted, 'Why was a stunt double doing this non stunt work — especially given the sensitivity of it? 'Who is gonna take responsibility for the abuse of power …' EXPLICIT ACTION These questions were among more than a dozen that LaBella allegedly asked Cheney in relation to the scene. For example, the amended lawsuit said she also allegedly asked, "how did lining up a shot turn into a rape sequence?" and "why was sensitive and explicit action commanded when it wasn't in the script?" The Weekly claimed that Cheney later wrote an incident report in which she allegedly noted that 'apologies were made to Ella [Hunt] and Devyn by various parties involved.' COSTNER'S ATTORNEY RESPONDS Costner's attorney, Martin Singer, has rejected LaBella's claims. He said in a statement, "Ms. LaBella was doing a rehearsal on an insert shot for a scripted scene." Any shot whose only objective is to draw the viewer's attention to a single aspect inside a scene is referred to as an insert shot, according to the Singer told The U.S. Sun, "There was no intimacy or anything sexual in the shot. "There was tugging on a dress while she was fully clothed in a dress with long bloomers lying down next to a male actor. "Numerous witnesses have contradicted Ms. LaBella's meritless claims. "She herself texted her supervisor after she wrapped stating, 'Thank you for these wonderful weeks.' "We look forward to the swift end of this specious lawsuit.' REHEARSED It followed his previous statement on the lawsuit when it was lodged. He said last month, "The scene in question was explained to Ms. LaBella. "After she performed the rehearsal in character with another actor, she gave her stunt coordinator supervisor a thumbs up and indicated her willingness to then shoot the scene, if needed (which she was not)." He added, "That night, Ms. LaBella had dinner with her supervisor, the stunt coordinator, and with the assistant stunt coordinator, and she was in good spirits and made no complaints to them. "She continued to work on the movie for a few more weeks until her wrap date, and she took the stunt coordinator to a thank-you dinner." DAMAGES The lawsuit seeks damages in an amount to be determined at trial. It also seeks a judge's order for the defendants to undergo sexual harassment training, to be required to use an intimacy coordinator on future productions and to issue LaBella a public apology. Costner has spent 30 years trying to make the ambitious, four-part Western epic Horizon: An American Saga. The first part was released in June 2024. But plans to release the second immediately afterwards were put on hold after the poor box office performance of part one.

Doireann Garrihy fears ‘judgement from people' ahead of arrival of first child
"I just feel so lucky having my first baby, to be doing it with my sister, who I live 10 minutes away from, and there's just a lot to look forward to,' Doireann said. RTÉ 2FM presenter Doireann Garrihy has said she fears she might face judgement from people as a new mum. The Dancing with the Stars host (33) is expecting her first child with husband Mark Mehigan. The couple, who tied the knot at the end of last year, announced they are expecting a baby back in April, as the presenter took to Instagram to reveal the happy news. In the first episode of the third season of her podcast, Doireann and Friends, she was joined by her sister Ailbhe Garrihy, who is also currently pregnant with her third child. Doireann, who said she is 'feeling great' and has 'lots of energy' during her second trimester, shared with her sister that she fears the judgment on social media which comes with being a mum. Doireann Garrihy and her fiancé Mark Mehigan. Photo: Instagram "I just don't know how I'm going to prepare for A, judgment from people, and then B, mum guilt as a result of people being judgy,' she said. Doireann, who currently hosts 2FM Drive, said she had a 'couple of experiences' of receiving unsolicited advice on her social media and inappropriate in-person comments. "Someone wrote to me today. I made an iced coffee, and someone replied saying: 'I really hope that's decaf for the baba'. 'Generally, I would ignore, and I just replied and said: 'My doctor told me I can have a coffee a day'. 'When I hadn't announced, I hadn't said it to anyone, there was one person who kept writing to me on Instagram saying: 'I think you have news for your followers. Wink, wink'. Doireann Garrihy pictured for Sunday Independent Living. Photo: Gerry Mooney News in 90 Seconds - June 24th 'So when you get that message, of course, my brain went into overdrive. I was like: 'Okay, I've been seen in the hospital, and I look pregnant. Who have I said it to that maybe has said to someone somewhere?' 'When I did announce, someone was like: 'Yeah, [I] knew you were pregnant during Dancing with the Stars. Do you know why? A lot of your outfits were very leg-focused. I was like: 'I've been getting my legs out as much as possible [my whole life]'.' Her sister Ailbhe, who is the mother to Séan (4) and Fionn (2), added she thinks pregnancy and parenthood open up 'these flood gates'. "It's almost like people are like: 'Okay, now we can just say whatever we want,' she said. The Garrihy sisters also spoke about the joy of being pregnant at the same time, as there are 'six weeks between them'. "I just feel so lucky having my first baby, to be doing it with my sister, who I live 10 minutes away from, and there's just a lot to look forward to,' Doireann said. 'I feel so unbelievably lucky that it's happening at the same time as you.' They added that sharing their maternity leave would be the first time they had spent more time together since secondary school. 'I hope it'll just be walks and coffee. I hope we do, and I hope we stick to it,' Ailbhe said.
