The Transparent star’s former assistant Van Barnes, who is transgender, alleged that Tambor acted inappropriately in a private Facebook post, according to Deadline. In response, Amazon has launched an investigation. Asked to comment, Tambor tells Deadline: “I am  aware that a former disgruntled  assistant of mine  has made a private post implying that I had acted in an improper manner toward her. I adamantly and vehemently reject and deny any and all implication and allegation that I have ever engaged in any improper behavior toward this person or any other person I have ever worked with…I am appalled and distressed by this baseless allegation.”
