Molly Shannon says she was sexually harassed by actor Gary Coleman

Molly Shannon says she was sexually harassed by “Diff'rent Strokes” actor Gary Coleman in the late '80s. Coleman died in 2010.

Speaking of the encounter, Shannon said she and Coleman shared the same agent, Mark Randall. The three met for tea at the Plaza and while there, Shannon confirmed Coleman invited her up to his hotel suite. She said she was thinking nothing of it. 

"And I was a virgin so I wasn't even thinking about that," Shannon said. "He held my hand I was like, ‘He's so cute!’ He had his suit on. He told me I reminded him of Kimberly from 'Diff'rent Strokes.' And Mark came up with us too, and they had the presidential suite, and we went into the room and Mark disappeared."
