Kevin Spacey plans on going for evaluation as a result of multiple sexual accusations leveled against him.

Kevin Spacey is reportedly taking time out to seek help and counselling.

The two time Oscar winner is doing so because of the multiple sexual allegations levelled against him.

According to People Magazine,“Kevin Spacey is taking the time necessary to seek evaluation and treatment. No other information will be available at this time. This statement was sent to People by a rep of Kevin Spacey.

 

This statement is coming after actor Anthony Rapp claimed that Spacey made unwarranted sexual advances to him at a private party in New York City in 1986. He made this revelation in an interview with Buzzfeed. Kevin Spacey was 26 and Rapp was 14 at the time.

 

"He was trying to seduce me. I don't know if I would have used that language. But I was aware that he was trying to get with me sexually"  Rapp told Buzzfeed.
