Charlotte Hawkins has opened up about the time she "blanked" Harvey Weinstein and has said that she still gets "goosebumps" over the encounter.
Hosting Good Morning Britain today alongside Richard Madeley as they spoke about the disgraced Hollywood producer.
The 44-year-old landed a role in Bradley Cooper's blockbuster Burnt in 2015 and admitted that she accidentally blanked Weinstein on the red carpet.
However they later got talking and Charlotte revealed: "I made some joke about how I thought I'd end up on the cutting room floor. But he said, 'Oh no, you were great, we especially extended your scene because of it.'
"I mean, now I look back at it with goosebumps, with what happened."
Richard then asked: "But you didn't detect... because I mean, you must be used to guys coming onto you but you didn't detect that with you?"
"Looking back retrospectively my husband was there, which I was very pleased [about]," she said. "But you can understand the power that he had within the industry to be able to say, 'You were great'.
"Of course, you felt special, you felt great. Then I can imagine from that point of view how he could have misused that power."
Earlier, Rosanna Arquette appeared on the programme to speak about a new documentary on the Weinstein scandal.
Speaking via video link in Los Angeles, she said: "He was always a scary man. When I first met him years ago, he was polite, he had great taste in films. You can’t take away that, the man knows about movies and he was respected for that, but he was a scary man.
"He was crass and a tough man. But I am here to speak for all of us … It has been very traumatic for all of us to go through this in the last few years."
