As the trial regarding a ski accident involving Gwyneth Paltrow continues, the actress testified yesterday in a civil trial regarding the reported hit-and-run collision. Terry Sanderson is suing the Oscar winner with allegations of colliding with him on a run at the Deer Valley Resort, leaving him with four broken ribs and a permanent traumatic brain injury. While on the stand, the actress claimed that the ski collision felt like a “sexual assault,” and Sanderson’s lawyer asked her to act out what she meant by that.
Gwyneth Paltrow, who happily retired from acting to run her wellness company Goop, gave her account of what she claimed happened on the slopes back in 2016. According to TMZ, she said that retired optometrist Dr. Terry Sanderson came up from behind as she was skiing slowly down the run. She said that as the collision happened, his skis went between her legs and he was up against her back. During the retired actress' testimony, she said she thought for a second that she was being sexually assaulted.
