12. She Was Forced To Move London

Right at the outset of their discussion, things heated up pretty quickly. It was revealed that McGowan was forced to move to London back in 2018 as an instrumental part of her mental healing process.

After selling her L.A home, she decided that it was far too dangerous for her to live anywhere in California. Why? Well, in the previous few years, McGowan had unknowingly become the target of an enforced intelligence agency called Black Cube - hired by Harvey Weinstein to keep tabs on her and uncover details of her personal life.

Specifically, her life was infiltrated by a woman named Stella Penn, a former spy from the Mossad, who was working for Black Cube in order to track her 24/7 whereabouts and gather any information about the plans she had in place to expose Weinstein’s crimes.

It turned out that Penn had posed as McGowan’s close-friend, and had wormed herself into her life so intensely that McGowan had once consoled in her saying that “she was the only person in the world that she felt like she could trust.” Penn had even co-attended meetings that McGowan had with reporters and journalists about Weinstein.

McGowan said, “the level of conspiracy is mind-blowing”, and she described this time in her life as like having lurking shadow people following her, not knowing where or who they were.
