Former Law & Order: SVU <\/em>star Diane Neal<\/strong> seems to have some beef with the special victims unit. This is her story.<\/p>\n

According<\/a> to Page Six<\/em>, the star allegedly called Mariska Hargitay<\/a><\/strong> a “total bitch” and branded the rest of her co-stars “awful people” in comments the aspiring politician once said to her former campaign manager Rachael Himsel<\/strong>. In addition, she allegedly said the only person on the set that she actually liked was Ice T<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

This scandalous information was allegedly revealed in an email from Himsel to an unnamed source and is now one of the exhibits in her ex-boyfriend, JB Benn<\/strong>‘s, lawsuit against her. In his suit, filed this November, he’s claiming the actress threatened <\/a>to kill him and his dog. However, these accusations are made in a counter-suit to Neal’s own claims<\/a> that Benn sexually and physically abused her, harmed her pets and stole money from her, which she filled 2-years-ago. Both parties deny any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Diane denies making these comments about her former co-stars, who she starred on the show with from 2001-2012. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In a statement to Page Six<\/em>, the star shared, “There is no truth to this at all. Most of the people I’ve worked with are amazing, I love almost everyone I’ve ever worked with.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Plus, Diane insists she holds no ill will towards Mariska, who plays Olivia Benson on the show. “Mariska and I were not the closest, but that doesn’t mean we have any animosity towards each other, we’re still very supportive of each other. She’s a great mom, she’s great as Benson, she’s doing great charity work,” she stated. “I have never talked about the cast members like this, it’s salacious and untrue.”<\/p>\n

Hargitay, Ice T and the rest of the Law & Order: SVU<\/em> cast have yet to publicly comment on the alleged email. <\/p>\n

(E! and Law & Order: SVU<\/em> are both members of the NBCUniversal family.)<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
