The “Blindspot” actress tweeted a link to a petition urging AMC to bring Hardwick back after his show “Talking with Chris Hardwick” was pulled from their schedule.
Alexander also tweeted saying that she has decided to support Hardwick given the personal knowledge she has of the situation.
“If you are tired of the Hollywood Accusations then sign below and the petition below and tell AMC to bring Chris Hardwick Back!” the petition page reads.
The petition has managed to collect over 13,000 signatures with a goal of 15,000.
Earlier this month, Dykstra accused Hardwick of years of emotional and physical abuse during their relationship, as well as harassment afterward.
Denying the allegations, Hardwick said in a statement at the time, “I was heartbroken to read Chloe’s post. Our three year relationship was not perfect — we were ultimately not a good match and argued — even shouted at each other — but I loved her, and did my best to uplift and support her as a partner and companion in any way and at no time did I sexually assault her.”
