Actress Jennifer Esposito has lashed out at CBS TV chiefs after she was dropped from her role on the series Blue Bloods.
She has accused them of 'shameful behaviour' after she claiming she has been prevented from work following an on-set collapse.
The 39 year old, who suffers from immune disease Celiac, claims TV chiefs accused her of faking the illness to get a pay rise.
The war of words erupted after Esposito, who plays Detective Jackie Curatola, was told that she was being put on unpaid leave from the hit series.
CBS said the decision was taken after Esposito said her illness meant she had to work a reduced schedule.
A statement from CBS said: 'As a result, she’s unable to perform the demands of her role and we regretfully had to put her character on a leave of absence.'
But Esposito took to her Twitter account to hit out at CBS accusing them of 'shameful behaviour'.
She wrote: 'CBS PUT me on unpaid leave and has blocked me from working anywhere else after my doctor said you needed a reduced schedule due to Celiac.''CBS didn’t listen to my doc and I collapsed on set. Which everyone saw! After a week off my doc said I could return to work but CBS implied that I was NOT truly ill and this was a scheme to get a raise!'It’s been almost two months without bringing me back to work + keeping Me from working anywhere else!… Absolutely shameful behavior.'CBS have not ruled out bringing Esposito back to the series.'She is a wonderfully talented actress and we hope that she will be able to return at some point in the future,' the studio said.Earlier this year Esposito became a spokesman for Celiac sufferers.
The illness causes a wide range of ailments in sufferers from digestive to skin problems.
Esposito said she was diagnosed in 2009 after almost 20 years of problems.
'Prior to my diagnosis, my entire life was filled with random ailments, from stomach issues to constant sinus infections and panic attacks, just to name a few of them,' she said.'My knees would buckle when I walked. I was sleeping close to 16 hours per day and yet still didn't feel well-rested. The stomach ailments where debilitating. My sinus condition had become intolerable. My panic attacks were making me agoraphobic.On top of that my hair was falling out and my skin was so dry it was flaking off and the color of it was a lively shade of yellow.As a result of diagnoses she now must maintain a gluten free diet.
She said as many as three million people suffer from Celiac which is often misdiagnosed by doctors.
