According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hunter claimed that the actor asked her to give him a foot massage on her first day, which she politely complied to. Hunter further said, “He was openly flirtatious, he grabbed my behind, he talked about sex to me and in front of me. One morning I went to his dressing room to take his breakfast order; he looked at me and grinned, taking his time. Then he said, “I’ll have a hard-boiled egg… and a soft-boiled clitoris.’ His entourage burst out laughing. I left speechless. Then I went to the bathroom and cried.”

Hunter also revealed that she initially liked the attention she was getting, until she looked back on their encounters. She also sent out letters to her sister mentioning how the actor had been acting inappropriately with her during the five weeks she worked with him. In one of the letters, Hunter told her sister that Hoffman was a “pig” but also said that “I like him a lot.” After watching All The President’s Men, Hunter texted her sister, “Is it weird that I find him kind of sexy in this after what he did?”
