According to an investigation by The Guardian and ITV, Walliams has systematically used his position of power to pressure young women into sleeping with him. In some cases, the women have been as young as 15.

David Walliams is one of Britain's best-known television personalities, known for programmes such as "Little Britain" and "Britain's Got Talent". He has also sold millions of copies of his children's books.

Walliams tried to stop the publication through his legal representatives, citing the risk that he might take his own life, but a court has now dismissed the request.
