Edwards said she didn&#8217;t recall Shepard using a condom the two times they allegedly had sex, and also claimed the actor is well-endowed. &#8220;It&#8217;s like a horse,&#8221; she said with a smile. &#8220;It&#8217;s scary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"71.3184\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"39.4128\">\n<p>Shepard wasted no time refuting her claims. &#8220;Hey <em>Daily Mail<\/em>, that photo is 13 years old, not 9.
