‘It wasn’t long until he asked me if I’d ever had sex before’: David Walliams accused of preying on young women for sex
The Guardian and ITV News investigate allegations that David Walliams groomed fans as young as 15 — including Alex, Jade, Lilly Creightmore and Ella — and harassed young women at HarperCollins and Britain's Got Talent, allegations he denies, writing "I am not a sexual predator" after a high court bid to stop publication failed. The piece charts his rise from Little Britain to bestselling children's author and OBE recipient, and reports that HarperCollins dropped him after an internal inquiry concluded in 2024 without consequences for him.
