Doctor Strange actress Zara Phythian and her husband Victor Marke have been accused of having sex with a 13-year-old girl after grooming her.
The couple deny the charges.
The woman said the abuse happened between 2005 and 2008 and she was 13 when the alleged abuse began.
The woman says Phythian gave her alcohol and asked her to have oral sex with Marke. Her husband then allegedly had sex with both of them.
“I knew it was wrong but I just didn’t know how to get out of the situation or say anything,” the unidentified victim said. “I remember trying to copy Zara’s reaction at the time because I looked up to her and tried to be like her in every way.”
Nottinghamshire Live newspaper reports the victim alleges the couple had relations with her at least 20 times. In UK, the age of consent is 16.
Marke allegedly threatened to smash her kneecaps if she told anyone.
“He just said nobody would believe me if I told them anyway,” she told police. “They always had a power over me.”
