“The last few projects I’ve worked on I didn’t have the best experiences with some of the people I had to work for. One of the last movies I did, one of the producers asked me to… like, he hired a girl that he was sleeping with and then he had her ask me to have a threesome with them,” Van Dien said. “So… like, that’s my boss. And then I didn’t and I cried and I was so upset.

As Grace Van Dien opens up about her experiences, it’s clear that there’s still work to be done in Hollywood to ensure a safer and more respectful environment for everyone. Whether or not she decides to stick with acting, her willingness to share her story can make a real difference.
