Joe Gatto Denies Sexual Misconduct Allegations, Steps Away from Public Life

The former 'Impractical Jokers' star faces accusations of sexual assault and harassment, which he denies, while acknowledging poor judgment and announcing a temporary withdrawal from public appearances.

Two women have accused Joe Gatto of sexual misconduct, including a TikTok user claiming sexual assault in 2023 and a former employee alleging harassment and emotional manipulation.
The first accuser shared screenshots of alleged Instagram messages with Gatto, including evidence of vanish mode usage, and posted a photo of a bruise she claims he caused.
The second accuser described a hostile work environment, inappropriate touching, and retaliatory behavior when she rejected Gatto's advances, alleging he claimed to be in an open marriage.
Gatto has denied all allegations, stating he has used poor judgment but maintains he would never assault anyone.
He has announced a temporary withdrawal from public life to focus on personal matters, as media coverage and public discussion about the allegations continue.
