Esmé Bianco, Marilyn Manson settle sexual assault lawsuit 'out-of-court'

Game of Thrones actress Esme Bianco has reportedly reached a settlement with singer Marilyn Manson for a sexual assault lawsuit she filed against the singer in 2021.

Bianco alleged that the singer, whose real name is Brian Warner, perpetuated multiple forms of sexual assault, including rape and battery.

She also claimed that he violated California laws of human trafficking.

“Ms. Bianco has agreed to resolve her claims against Brian Warner and Marilyn Manson Records, Inc. in order to move on with her life and career,” the actress’ lawyer told Rolling Stone.

Manson’s attorney also corroborated the news.

Bianco was among a dozen women who accused Warner of sexual abuse after actress Evan Rachel Wood alleged similar claims via a post on Instagram in Feb. 2021.

Warner has denied claims of abuse over the years through his lawyer, including those in Bianco’s lawsuit.
