[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] Arianne Zucker has launched a troubling sexual harassment lawsuit against the production company behind Days of our Lives.
The soap opera actress, who was on the TV drama from 1998 up until January of this year, has filed a suit against Corday Productions and co-executive producers Ken Corday and Albert Alarr for what sounds like some pretty horrendous treatment — including what she alleges to be discrimination, harassment, retaliation and wrongful termination.

In the lawsuit, which has been obtained by multiple outlets, she claimed to be the victim of “sexually harassing comments and nonconsensual physical touching of a sexual nature,” during her 26-year run on the soap.
Specifically, she took aim at Albert, a recurring director on the show: Per the complaint, “Alarr would put his hands on [Arianne’s] waist, with his thumbs placed just above her vagina, and move her around, all the while smirking and grinning in a sexual manner, making [Arianne] extremely uncomfortable and violated.” WTF!!!
Arianne also alleged that Albert enjoyed shooting aggressive sex scenes, and would frequently shout out inappropriate directions to her, like, “f**k him like you were younger!” If true, REALLY messed up!!
