Woman sues Diddy, alleging sexual assault after 1999 party in New York

Comedian Jeff Dye is making headlines after calling Modern Family star Sarah Hyland a “tyrant” and “terrible” to work with on the 2019 film The Wedding Year. 

In a recent appearance on The George Janko Show, Dye, 42, reflected on his brief time on set, alleging that Hyland, 34, was rude to everyone, including extras and crew members.

“She’s, like, a pretty woman that chain smokes and is terrible,” Dye claimed, adding that Hyland was upset over extras eating from the craft services table. He described Hollywood’s hierarchy, saying, “She’s No. 1 on the call sheet, so we have to pander to her.”

Dye also shared a moment when Hyland allegedly showed the cast the Dumbo live-action trailer and started crying. He admitted to disrupting the moment by making a dismissive comment, which he says led Hyland to dislike him.

The comedian further claimed that he “checked in with everybody” on set and they all found Hyland to be difficult. “I think people found camaraderie in hating her,” he said, stating that her behavior isolated her from the rest of the cast.

Hyland has not responded to Dye’s allegations. Recently, she opened up about enduring an abusive relationship, but it remains unclear if these claims are related.
