Rita Wilson Reveals the Awful Way Scott Rudin Allegedly Treated Her When They Worked Together

Rita Wilson is opening up about what allegedly happened when she worked with disgraced Scott Rudin on the 2015 Broadway play Fish in the Dark.

The 64-year-old actress learned that she was diagnosed with breast cancer while performing in the play and Rudin‘s response to the news was awful.

“When she told Mr. Rudin the news, she said, he complained that she would need time off during Tony voting season and asked to see her medical records, while Anna Shapiro, the director, grew upset about having to find a replacement,” The New York Times reported.

The report added, “A few days later, just before the curtains rose, Ms. Wilson received a call from her agent, saying her surgeon needed to call the insurance adjuster immediately, per Mr. Rudin’s demands. The memory still pains her.”

“One year ago today I was playing the Sydney Opera House @sydneyoperahouse , the next day started feeling very tired and achy, two days later hospitalized with Covid 19. I want to take a moment to say how grateful we are for our health, how thankful we are for the medical care we got in Queensland, and that we share in the sorrow of each person who lost a loved one to this virus,” she wrote.

“I’m hopeful for so many being able to get the vaccine. I also do not take for granted that creating music stayed a part of my life through @zoom remote and safe recording and writing, even with women from Brazil @claudialeitte and @therajakumari for our new song Hello World. #hellowworldmovement Music has been very healing this year. So thankful for that, too.”

Rita and Tom were among the first of many celebrities diagnosed with coronavirus in the past year.

Rita Wilson No Longer Has COVID-19 Antibodies, 10 Months After Having Coronavirus

Rita Wilson and her husband Tom Hanks were two of the first celebrities to reveal they had been diagnosed with COVID-19 at the very start of the United States’ lockdown back in March of 2020.

The official diagnosis came on March 11, 2020. Well, Rita just made a big reveal during The Ellen Show: she no longer has antibodies for the virus, around 10 months later. In December of 2020, Rita said she did still have the antibodies. So, sometime between December of 2020 and January of 2021, Rita‘s antibodies disappeared.

This is significant as we still do not know how long COVID-19 antibodies will last. SARS-CoV-2 is a brand new virus that has now only been around about a year, and scientists were not sure how long Coronavirus antibodies would stay in the body after a person recovers from the illness.
