“Blindspot” star Jaimie Alexander is defending her pal Chris Hardwick from the sexual assault allegations made by his ex-girlfriend Chloe Dykstra.
On Thursday, Alexander tweeted a Change.org petition to bring Hardwick back to TV after his show “Talking with Chris Hardwick” was pulled from AMC’s lineup following the accusations. (Hardwick’s “Talking Dead” series has not officially been axed by AMC, but its presence on the network’s site has dramatically decreased.)
“‘Talking Dead’ Fans! ‘Walking Dead’ Fans! ‘Fear’ Fans!: Bring [back] Chris Hardwick! – Sign the petition,” Alexander wrote.
When followers reminded her of the allegations leveled against the 46-year-old Nerdist founder earlier this month, Alexander doubled down on her support.
“Guys – I’ve [known] Chris Hardwick for over 10 years,” Alexander, 34, wrote. “I knew him through his breakup with said accuser. With the personal knowledge I have regarding this situation I am choosing to follow my heart, my instincts, and support my friend.”
