Kevin Spacey gets emotional as he reveals he has auctioned his home: Can't pay the bills
Kevin Spacey
Kevin Spacey has revealed that his house is being foreclosed on and is being sold at auction as he faces millions in unpaid legal fees over sexual assault charges. The actor broke down while speaking to Piers Morgan in a new interview on his show Piers Morgan Uncensored. Spacey revealed that he not only lost his home but owed 'many millions' in legal bills.
When Piers Morgan asked where he currently resides, Kevin Spacey tried to hold back his tears and said that he no longer had a permanent home and had very little money left. The actor said, "It's funny you ask that question because this week, where I have been living in Baltimore is being foreclosed on. My house is being sold at auction, so I have to go back to Baltimore and put my things in storage. So the answer to that question is, I'm not sure where I am going to live now. But I've been in Baltimore since we started shooting House of Cards there. I moved there in 2012. This (house) has been my home since 2016. I can't pay the bills that I owe."
When asked if he was facing bankruptcy, Spaceysaid, "There's been a couple of times when I thought I was going to file but we've managed to dodge it, at least as of today... you have some sense of legal bills. I still owe a lot...Yes (I am in debt). It's considerable. Many millions. The house itself is many millions."

Kevin Spacey's legal battles
Since 2017, Spacey has been facing multiple allegations of sexual assault and inappropriate behaviour, mostly from men.
It all started after actor Anthony Rapp accused Spacey of sexually assaulting him in 1986, when he was 14 and Spacey was 26. The allegations made Spacey one of the most prominent celebrities accused as part of 2017’s 'Me Too' movement. Days before Rapp went public with his allegations, Spacey had come out as gay.
The actor was then fired from House of Cards and his acting career seemed to end overnight post Rapp's allegations which also promoted others to speak out against Spacey.
