In a joint letter, Ashley Judd and Rosanna Arquette alongside 19 other accusers called it ‘disappointing today’s outcome does not deliver the true, full justice that so many women deserve’, but expressed gratitude towards all the women who came forward to speak out against him. Harvey was taken straight into custody after the trial and will be sentenced on March JUSTICE AT LAST ced on 11.

I wanted to show you guys that it’s not all rainbows and butterflies!’ Ashley shared of the nitty-gritty parts of motherhood, which includes stretch marks, disposable underwear and breastfeeding in public.
