The entertainment industry is currently abuzz following the firing of David Del Rio from the production of ‘Matlock’ after a serious allegation. His wife, Katherine Del Rio, took to social media to express her feelings about the situation, specifically targeting the actress who made the accusations.
Details of the Allegation and Firing

Initially, she shared a close-up photo of Leah Lewis and criticized her, calling her “the most disturbing human being I have ever met.” This statement was captured in screenshots by several media outlets, including Us Magazine and TMZ.
Mocking the Actress
