The site reportedly paid $25,000 for the tape to an as-yet unidentified former lover of Arquette’s who xHamster believes was trying to profit off Arquette’s death and disparage her memory.
The man began trying to sell the video less than 24 hours after Arquette passed away on Sunday. xHamster acquired the tape late Monday and told The Daily Mail that they have destroyed every copy of the tape:
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, xHamster spokesman Alex Hawkins said the company acted to stop the man from ‘smearing her memory’.
‘Ms. Arquette was an icon and activist in the trans community and we could not see someone smear her memory the way the selling party was trying to do,’ he said.
‘We acquired the tape and subsequently destroyed all copies of it.
‘We hope people will remember Ms. Arquette for the activist that she was and that her memory will continue to live on.’
They should've released the seller's name so he can get his rightful LASHINGS
