SYDNEY, July 22 (Reuters) - Australian actor Rebel Wilson was on Wednesday found not liable by a Sydney court of defaming Charlotte MacInnes, the lead actor in Wilson's directorial debut "The Deb", over allegations linked to a series of social media posts made by Wilson.
MacInnes had alleged Wilson falsely claimed in Instagram posts that MacInnes had privately told her she was sexually harassed by one of the film's producers.
Wilson had strenuously denied the claims.
