Actress Amber Tamblyn says she was assaulted by a former boyfriend and felt compelled to speak out about it by Donald Trump’s 2005 remarks bragging about groping and kissing women.
Tamblyn says on Instagram that her ex-boyfriend grabbed her by her hair and crotch and carried her out of a nightclub. She says the part of her body that Trump “described as something he’d like to grab a woman by, was bruised from my ex-boyfriend’s violence for at least the next week.”

She says she’s afraid her parents will see her post, but she “needed to tell a story.”
Tamblyn was nominated for an Emmy for “Joan of Arcadia.”
