Marriages, children and romantic relationships
Allen has had three wives: Harlene Rosen (1954–1959), Louise Lasser (1966–1970) and Soon-Yi Previn (1997–present). Though he had a 12-year romantic relationship with actress Mia Farrow, the two never married. Allen also had romantic relationships with Stacey Nelkin and Diane Keaton.

He left with Soon-Yi when she was 17 or 18. But he was in a common-law relationship with her mother Mia for 12 years. So, he was Soon-yi's step-father from when she was about 5. No matter when the sexual relationship between them started IT WAS WRONG. One article says she was 20 when they left together. Even at that age, she was 8 when he was her step-father. And, it was because Mia found pictures. He didn't leave her, and later start an affair with her daughter. Mia and woody broke up because Mia found pictures.

As for charges not being brought against him from Dylan's accusations, I have read it was because it would have required her testifying, and that would include a cross examination. She was a little girl. Adult women feel re-raped when then have to testify. How would a 7 year old stand up to that? With the entire world watching. (The accusation was molestation not rape. I'm using the rape example only to compare how an adult victim feels when testifying.)

Siblings usually are unaware of what's happening.

Perhaps, but certainly wasn't the case in my family. My brother and sister and I talked about everything.

I should also mention that I'm not trying to , in some way, defend Mr. Allen. Or condemn him for that matter. I don't know what happened and neither does anyone else here. It's all what you want to believe or get out of the media's take on it. Some don't like his choice in women and some don't care for his personality. Or the way he looks.

I like his movies, they make me laugh and think. That is all.

Dylan's big brother isn't even accurately aware of the accusations. He talks of one instance...one day. She talks of much more. Actually, though she didn't use the word in the article I read, what she talks of is what is often referred to as "conditioning". Those accusations were there all along. These days many people know about conditioning, but was it commonly known back then? The only person I ever knew (in real life) was the mother of a child who was molested.

To be honest, if all she accused him of was one instance on one day, I would be less likely to believe her.

I really like some of his movies. Others aren't my cup of tea. My heart goes out to Dylan. True? Not true? She has been a pawn in a very dysfunctional relationship between Woody and Mia. My personal thoughts are something did happen just because of Woody's choice of companionship over the years. And it is very hard to overlook that he was a father figure to Soon yi since she was a little girl. You don't date, take nude pictures of and marry your "daughter."

And Mia is crazy, but I'd be ninja crazy if someone molested my kids too. A lot of creative men have dabbled in child molestation. Read any book on MOST rock bands from the old days to here and now. The groupies are almost always underage, but we overlook that. Why? Because they are some hot rocker?

I totally understood Stephen's original tweet. He didn't call anyone a bitch. He didn't blame the victim. I just looked at it as a comment about her interview.
