Hollywood actor Kevin Spacey recently had a meltdown as he spoke to Piers Morgan in a new interview about the fallout to his career and personal life from past sexual assault allegations. The veteran said his home in Baltimore was being sold off because he “can’t pay the bills.” Spacey, accused of sexually assaulting four men between 2001 and 2013, was acquitted in 2022 by a London court.
Spacey revealed that he hardly has any money left because of his legal fees. He said, “This week, where I live in Baltimore, is being foreclosed on. My house is being sold at auction. I have to go back to Baltimore and put all my things in storage. I’m not quite sure where I’m going to live now, but I’ve been in Baltimore since we started shooting House of Cards there. I moved there in 2012.”
When asked if he is facing bankruptcy, Spacey said, “A couple of times I thought I was going to file [for bankruptcy], but we’ve managed to sort of dodge it, at least as of today.”
On asked how much money he has left, the Oscar-winner said, “None… I still owe a lot of legal bills that I have not been able to pay,” adding that he is in “debt.” Spacey further mentioned that the legal bills amounted to “many millions.” When asked what his survival plan was, Spacey replied, “Get back on the horse.”
Spacey was one of the most prominent names accused of sexual assault during the 'Me Too' movement in 2017. Following the allegations, Netflix severed ties with him and removed the actor from the final season of 'House of Cards'. Subsequently, he was also removed from Ridley Scott's film 'All the Money in the World'. Since then, Spacey has not been able to score many projects and has worked in just three months, including the one he lent his voice for. Spacey won the Oscar for best actor for 'American Beauty' in 2000, and for best supporting actor for 'The Usual Suspects' in 1995.
