He alleges that she drunkenly broke into his home on the night in question and is suing him in an attempt to earn money and further her career.
“Hewitt broke into Phillippe’s home in the middle of the night without permission, and has now fabricated a story in an unjustified attempt to extort money from Phillippe and gain publicity for herself and her modeling career”
The actor also said that he intends to seek legal action against Hewitt for damaging his reputation once her lawsuit is dismissed.
According to People, authorities closed the investigation into Hewitt’s claims in September.
