Her identity can be reported after a court suppression order was lifted on Thursday.
Australian actor Yael Stone is Witness X, the woman who stepped forward to give evidence at the eleventh hour in Geoffrey Rush’s defamation case but was barred from testifying.star’s name can now be reported after a suppression order made by Federal Court justice Michael Wigney was lifted on Thursday.
The suppression order on Stone's name was lifted on Thursday with consent from all parties, following an application by Fairfax Media, now owned by Nine. The suppression order prevented reporting of Stone’s name and her allegations against Rush only in connection to the defamation case, which is why her interviews with other media outlets were able to be published.
“They ran a truth case. They lost,” she said, adding that the Telegraph had taken down the articles Rush sued over, but had then repeated the allegations in subsequent articles.
