Anika Noni Rose shared Thursday morning that she was sexually assaulted on a plane.

Anika Noni Rose shared her #MeToo story on SiriusXM’s Make It Plain show, in an emotional interview with host Mark Thompson.

The Quad actress revealed, “I have never spoken of this, but I will say this out loud now: I was assaulted on a plane last year. And I haven’t been able to get this person’s name; they won’t give me the name of the person.”

Anika went on to share that she didn’t know the person, and that it happened while she was asleep.

“I don’t know this person. He didn’t introduce himself. There was no, ‘Hi, how are you doing?’ And I was asleep before the plane even took off; I’m one of those sleepers,” she said. “That engine started and I’m like a baby in car. I’m out. He ruined it. Ruined it.”

The man was eventually removed from the plane, but like Anika Noni Rose shared in the beginning of the interview,  the airline won’t give her,  her assailant’s name.
