\n\tA Sydney court has cleared Rebel Wilson of defamation claims made by Australian actress Charlotte MacInnes, who starred in Wilson\u2019s 2024 film The Deb.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\tMacInnes had sued Wilson for Instagram posts the Pitch Perfect<\/em> star had made on her own account in 2024 and 2025 that saw Wilson accuse MacInnes of retracting her complaint of sexual harassment against a film producer so she could further her career. MacInnes has denied Wilson\u2019s claim.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Wednesday, the BBC reports that Australian federal court jude Elizabeth Raper dismissed the case against Wilson, saying that the claim that MacInnes had changed her story about the incident was not defamatory and that the actress had failed to establish the posts had caused or were likely to serious harm. Additionally, MacInnes was ordered to pay Wilson\u2019s legal costs.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe defamation sprung from a September 2023 incident, where The Deb\u2019s lead actress MacInnes went for a swim at Bondi Beach with Amanda Ghost, a British entertainment executive, a former president of Epic Records and one of the producers of Wilson\u2019s film. According to the BBC, Ghost suffered an allergic reaction and both Ghost and MacInnes returned to the producer\u2019s apartment, where they ended up in the bath together wearing swimsuits. <\/p>\n

\n\tJustice Raper cited the bath incident in her decision. \u201cTo say that the circumstance surrounding how they came to be in the bath are unusual would be an understatement,\u201d she told the court.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Sydney defamation case is part of a larger set of legal cases related to The Deb<\/em>, the Australian musical film comedy that Wilson produced, directed and had a support role in. In July 2024, Wilson revealed the acrimony behind the scenes, accusing the film\u2019s producers Gregor Cameron, Vince Holden and Ghost of blocking the film\u2019s premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival as well as making claims of embezzlement of $900,000 from the The Deb<\/em>\u2018s budget and Ghost\u2019s inappropriate behavior towards the film\u2019s lead actress MacInnes. <\/p>\n

\n\tIn response, Cameron, Holden and Ghost filed a defamation lawsuit against Wilson. In January, a Los Angeles judge has tossed most of Wilson\u2018s lawsuit against The Deb<\/em> producers, calling many of the allegations \u201cconclusory without specific facts\u201d and \u201cabusive.\u201d<\/p>\n
