Whoopi Goldberg has defended Roman Polanski, saying he did not commit “rape-rape”.

The ‘Rosemary’s Baby’ filmmaker was arrested in Zurich, Switzerland, on Saturday (26.09.09) and faces being extradited to the US after he fled the country in 1978 after being convicted of having sex with a 13-year-old girl, believing a judge would renege on a plea bargain deal and hand him a considerable jail term.

“He’d love a wedding. It really would make his life complete after all the madness that’s surrounded him. But Ayda has seen her mother divorced twice and is all too aware of the pain it’s caused. She doesn’t want to end up going the same route.”
