Actress  Ashley Judd was among the first to come forward with allegations of sexual harassment against Hollywood heavyweight Harvey Weinstein. Now, the outspoken social justice advocate has brought the #MeToo movement to civil war-torn South Sudan, telling survivors of sexual assault: 'I see you, I love you and I'm here for you'. The 50-year-old has just spent a week in the African country - one where rape is a widespread weapon - as part of her global ambassador role for the United Nations Population Fund. Surrounded by women in a maternity hospital in a UN camp in Juba, the actress tearfully told new mothers: 'We're all women and we're all the same.'
