Emily Atack opens up about pest who exposed himself and pressured her for sex

Emily Atack has revealed a colleague once exposed himself to her and pressurised her in to having sex - leaving her in floods of tears.

Atack says the incident occurred in a hotel room after a wrap party for a project she had worked on.

The pest, who she refers to only as Dave, cornered the actress in the room after she and a group of pals had been wandering the hotel in a search for alcohol.

The 29-year-old told The Sun: “I was drunk. I wasn’t single. I was with someone at the time, so I had no intention of doing anything with anybody.”

One friend gave her a room key saying there was a mini fridge with alcohol in the room.

After investigating, the I’m a Celeb… runner-up realised there was no booze in the room. She added: “And all of a sudden I turned round and Dave is standing there, in the room with his d*** out. I froze. I remember saying, drunkenly, ‘No’, but I didn’t have a clue what to do.”

Dave refused to let her leave, and in a panic she kissed him before fleeing.

She said: “He let me leave and the next day I cried my eyes out all day.”

In her book Are We There Yet?: To indignity . . . and Beyond!, she writes: “I’d love to say that with age, courage and experience, if it happened now, I’d kick him in the balls.
