AMC suspends Chris Hardwick talk show after ex-girlfriend makes allegations of abuse

(CNN)TV host Chris Hardwick is facing career fallout amid allegations by his ex-girlfriend, actress Chloe Dykstra, that he sexually and emotionally abused her.

AMC said Saturday it has suspended his show, “Talking with Chris Hardwick,” while it assesses the accusations against him. The cable network also said Hardwick will step aside from moderating AMC and BBC America panels at Comic-Con International in San Diego next month.

“We have had a positive working relationship with Chris Hardwick for many years,” the network said. “We take the troubling allegations that surfaced yesterday very seriously. While we assess the situation, ‘Talking With Chris Hardwick’ will not air on AMC.”
Hardwick has denied the allegations.

In an essay posted Thursday on Medium, Dykstra described her almost three-year relationship with an older celebrity who she said imposed strict rules on her behavior.

Dykstra, 29, wrote that he forbid her to have male friends, to speak in public or to go out at night without him — and that she “let him sexually assault me” on multiple occasions. “Every night, I laid there for him, occasionally in tears,” she wrote.

She didn’t mention Hardwick, 46, by name, describing him as someone who “grew from a mildly successful podcaster to a powerhouse CEO of his own company.” But because of the details in her post — her boyfriend was almost 20 years older, they dated for three years, he was a recovering alcoholic — readers had no trouble figuring out she was referring to Hardwick. – Source
