Speaking to the Times, Gwyneth alleged that when she was 22 years old and cast as the lead in Emma, Harvey invited her to his suite at the Peninsula Beverly Hills hotel for a work meeting, where he put his hands on her and proposed massages in the bedroom.

Gwyneth added that she told her then-boyfriend Brad Pitt about what had happened, and Brad confronted Harvey - warning him to never touch Gwyneth again. It's worth noting that Brad's representatives confirmed this story when approached by the Times.

She noted: "I was expected to keep the secret," which she did until 2017.

Gwyneth referenced law professor Anita Hill, who testified in 1991 that Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas had sexually harassed her when she worked with him at the Department of Education and the EEOC. Michael Tran / Getty Images Her testimony was televised across America, and Anita faced intense public scrutiny, political attacks, and personal and public pressure to retract her allegations. Meanwhile, Clarence - who always denied any wrongdoing - was confirmed into the Supreme Court, and did not face any legal repercussions from Anita's allegations. Ralf-finn Hestoft / Getty Images When asked if she had been worried about speaking out against Harvey, Gwyneth confessed: "You have to remember that I grew up with Anita Hill as my model of what happens. A woman is incredibly brave, she does the right thing, and then she's eviscerated, and the man goes on to have all the power. We saw that happen again and again, so I really thought it could be cataclysmic for me." Nbc / Getty Images "I was very reluctant to speak to a journalist," she went on. "And throughout the investigation, I didn't know if I'd go on the record. But during the course of my many conversations with Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey of The New York Times, I started to understand the depth, breadth and darkness of what had actually transpired, which I did not know." Taylor Hill / Getty Images "And once I did, I thought: 'I have no choice here, I have to say something,'" Gwyneth recalled. "Because I knew that me co-signing that would be a big deal. And I am so glad I did... But it was really scary." John Lamparski / Getty Images Thankfully, Gwyneth said that she ultimately doesn't feel like she faced any negative repercussions for speaking out. She added: "I was just so angry when I learned everything. And I'm an Enneagram 1 [on the popular personality test], so when I perceive injustice, I go scorched-earth, and I will die on that sword." Nicholas Hunt / Getty Images When the reporter then mentioned that Harvey kept a photo of Gwyneth taken on the night she won her Oscar on display in his office "like a prize," Gwyneth spoke candidly about the reality of their relationship in the years between Brad confronting him and her coming forward with her experience. Steve Granitz / Getty Images After saying that it makes her "absolutely sick" that he had the photo up, Gwyneth confessed: "It's also hard for me, because my relationship with Harvey, after that incident, was very complicated, but it was also a great working relationship." Bob Riha Jr / Getty Images "We made incredible films together. We sort of got over that weird thing, and I was like: 'OK, that's behind us,'" she went on. "Harvey and I had lots of other fights about lots of other things, but I had this incredible creative run with him and his company. And so it's complicated because I'm so proud of the work that we did, and it's wild because he was so gifted at finding talent and understanding and nurturing it."
