Emily Ratajkowski hated how 'f**ked up' Hollywood encouraged women to have meetings with Harvey Weinstein

EmRata 'hated' that her estranged husband was linked to Weinstein

Emily Ratajkowski has been quite open about her disgust for disgraced Hollywood exec Harvey Weinstein over the years.

The former Hollywood figurehead was sentenced to 23 years in prison back in 2020, after being found guilty of sexual assault and rape.

After seeing for herself how young women were being set up by 'f**ked up' Hollywood bosses to take meetings with Weinstein, the model and actress decided to call it out in one of her many essays.

EmRata spoke about how her estranged husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard, was among the men who once 'kissed Harvey Weinstein's ring' before his sentence.

Detailing the night she was 'forced' to attend a party with Bear-McClard, his agent, and a room full of 'vile' Hollywood bosses, she recalled in her essay: "I thought about the way that [Bear-McClard] had glided through the room, a room full of men who only two years before had been kissing Harvey Weinstein’s ring...

"[They were] encouraging their young female clients to take meetings with him in hotel rooms. I hated that my husband was at all connected to these men."

Emily also publicly called out Weinstein back in 2019 when she walked the red carpet for the Uncut Gems premiere.

Wearing a black mini dress on the carpet, EmRata posed with her arms up to reveal the words 'F**k Harvey' written on her left arm.

Emily, who has always been very outspoken about her beliefs, has had a harder time recently speaking out about her ongoing divorce and custody battle with Bear-McClard.

In a recent interview with the LA Times, she noted that 'outspoken women don't often get their children'.

Emily and Sebastian are parents to son Sylvester, who they welcomed in March 2021.

Although she opted not to go into heavy detail about her drama with Bear-McClard because she was 'scared', EmRata did describe the past year of separation as 'horrifying' and 'one of the most traumatic experiences of [her] entire life'.

Elsewhere in the interview, Emily explained why she had decided to quit acting for good, despite her impressive resumé .

"I didn’t feel like, ‘Oh, I’m an artist performing and this is my outlet,'" she admitted.

"I felt like a piece of meat who people were judging, saying, ‘Does she have anything else other than her [breasts]?’”

In 2020, tired of of making herself 'digestible to powerful men in Hollywood,' the model ended up firing her manager, commercial rep and acting agent.

"I didn’t trust them," she said. "I was like, ‘I can handle receiving phone calls. I’m gonna make these decisions. None of you have my best interest at heart.’”
