Dixon, who appeared in Perry's long-running political drama The Oval and its spin-off Ruthless, filed the lawsuit in Los Angeles back in June, in which he claimed Perry used his "success and power [and] considerable influence in the entertainment industry to create a coercive, sexually exploitative dynamic". In the complaint, Dixon said he was promised "career advancements" by Perry only to "subject him to escalating sexual harassment, assault and battery, and professional retaliation when Mr Dixon did not reciprocate Mr Perry's unwanted advances".

Perry's offered career advancement turned coercive, as allegations include sexual harassment and assault alongside professional retaliation when advances were rejected.

I don't have the words to express how much this means to me and my family.
