Another woman has come forward.

Ben Affleck has come under fire in recent days after Hilarie Burton came forward to reveal that she was sexually assaulted by the actor while interviewing him on TRL in 2003.

Now another woman has come forward to say the 45-year-old groped her during a Golden Globes party in 2014.

Makeup artist Annamarie Tendler has revealed in a series of tweets that Affleck sexually assaulted her in 2014 but says she didn’t feel she could say anything until now.

One Tree Hill star Hilarie was 21 at the time of the incident which was broadcast on the popular show.

She took to Twitter to share that she has never forgotten it.

Ben later posted an apology online, saying:

“I acted inappropriately toward Ms Burton and I sincerely apologise.”
