An Amazon spokesperson confirmed to Variety on Wednesday that Amazon studios is conducting an investigation into a sexual harassment allegation against Jeffrey Tambor.

Deadline reports that Tambor’s former assistant Van Barnes, a transgender woman, implied in a private Facebook post that the Transparent actor behaved inappropriately toward her.

Tambor responded to the allegation in a statement to Deadline:

“I am aware that a former disgruntled assistant of mine has made a private post implying that I had acted in an improper manner toward her. I adamantly and vehemently reject and deny any and all implication and allegation that I have ever engaged in any improper behavior toward this person or any other person I have ever worked with. I am appalled and distressed by this baseless allegation.”

Transparent creator Jill Soloway said in a statement that she is cooperating with the investigation. “Anything that would diminish the level of respect, safety and inclusion so fundamental to our workplace is completely antithetical to our principles.”
