A Sydney court has ruled that Rebel Wilson did not defame her fellow actress Charlotte MacInnes, dismissing a lawsuit MacInnes brought over a series of Instagram posts. In those posts, Wilson had accused MacInnes of withdrawing a sexual harassment complaint against a film producer in order to advance her own career rather than pursue the matter through proper channels. Justice Elizabeth Raper found in Wilson's favour, concluding the posts did not amount to defamation.

The judgment closes a significant chapter in a bitter dispute between the two women, who worked together on Wilson's directorial debut, The Deb. The case had drawn wide attention as a public clash between industry figures over accountability and conduct, and commentary has since turned to lyrics in MacInnes's recent music that appear to allude to the feud.
