'Reacher' Star Alan Ritchson Says 'Very Famous Photographer' Sexually Assaulted Him

The 41-year-old revealed that he immediately quit modeling after the incident, which led to an "existential crisis" and a suicide attempt.

Jesus Christ. What kind of a snowflake is this guy? Suicide, really?!!

The former model said the assault “left some scars,” however, and told the Reporter that an ensuing “existential crisis” led to a suicide attempt in 2019.

“I was sent into a hotel room to do nudes with the promise that if I did the shoot, he would offer me a very lucrative campaign for a magazine and a clothing line,” he told the outlet. “I was sexually assaulted by this guy. I left and drove straight to the agency that I was at.”

“I stormed in and said, ‘Fuck you for sending me there. You knew what was going to happen, and you did it anyway,’” added Ritchson. “There was a coy smile [on the agent’s face], knowing he got caught. ‘It’s OK,’ he said. ‘Not a big deal, calm down.’”

The agent purportedly told Ritchson he wouldn’t be sent “back there” and nonchalantly admitted the photographer “can get a little aggressive.” Despite being “one of the highest paid models at the agency,” Ritchson said he quit and never looked back.

In the heat of the moment, I can see where a double betrayal coupled by your own unwarranted feelings of complicity in the matter could push you to doing something rash. He was exploited and abused. When you’re a guy, you’re supposed to settle these things violently or swallow them in silence.

It sounds to me like Mr. Ritchson had demons brewing within him long before he entered the modeling world.

I wonder if there may have been child molestation in his past that triggered his intense reaction to being groped by a gay photographer.

Ritchson has already publicly disclosed on many occasions that he has a mood disorder. The victims of sexual assault be they women, men or children are often traumatized severely by what happened to them. I am not surprised that the combination of sexual assault with mental health issues would indeed cause an existential crisis or suicidality.

I’m glad he overcame this crisis and now has has made a great career for himself.

HIs timelines don't add up. He is 41 now. in 2014 he would be 30, sitting next to Testino, long after he left modeling. He auditioned for American Idol 21 years ago so he left modelling at ...19...20 ish? He did Smallville from 2005 - 2010 so he was 21-26 when he landed Smallville.and pretty consistently since then, including stints on Titans as Hawk, Blue Mountain State...etc. At the time of the Testino incident, he was in Hunger Games and TMNT. Not really small movies where he would even need to be on the cover of Vogue?

[quote]and a suicide attempt.

FFS, reading his Wiki bio (because I have no idea who he is), his first modelling job ideas at age 20, for the Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue. And soon enough he knew to insist to his management company that he would not consider nude work. All fine.

But then he's placed in an uncomfortable position of his interviewer wanting sex with him. Completely understandable if he is not interested and rejects the advances and protests to his managers. Again, understandable.

But to blame suicide attempts on this?

Not on his self-confessed bipolar disorder, but because some gays wanted to see dick or fuck him, on one occasion.

Does he think women in modelling aren't hired by sleazy clients who try to take advantage of young, naive models who are hard-pressed for money? Even well known famous female models aren't protected from creeps in their professional sphere and from randoms at every turn. If every female model who was once hit on quit the business and considered suicide, there wouldn't be models enough left alive for a photoshoot in most cities.

I don't doubt he was hit upon. I don't doubt almost every is hit upon and that their are people who use any hint of power as a weapon to bed or discomfort models. It's not so pretty a business. He's trying to claim one uncomfortable session left him on the verge of suicide for a long time after, yet composed enough to march into his modelling reps' office and tear them to shreds with his words.

Yeah, it upset him, he told his reps off, and then it stayed with him for a long time. I don't think there's anything weird about that at all?

He is a "Jesus Freak" but openly criticizes the Church.

He is bipolar.

He has played gay a couple of times including, most recently, last year in the Guy Ritchie movie (with Henry Cavill), "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare."

He hates Trump and got a lot of backlash from the Reacher fans when he openly discussed him and his dislike of the catholic Church.

I don't actually hate the guy.

by Anonymousreply 61March 10, 2025 1:27 PM

He is also very uber-Christian so subtly blaming gay men for his suicide attempt is in his favor. He seems to be rabid anti-trump but given his born again status I think he is privately a Magat to keep himself employed.
