‘I was only 15 when he touched me’: The shocking allegations against David Walliams

Multiple women have accused David Walliams of sexual misconduct, including when they were teenagers.

The television personality was named as part of an investigation by the Guardian and ITV News on Tuesday, after he tried to get an injunction to prevent the reporting of allegations against him.

    Walliams, 55, denies any wrongdoing, stating that he is not a sexual predator and has not broken the law.

    “I am devastated that some of the women I met 10 to 20 years ago have now expressed hurt or anger towards me,” he added.

    Here are some of the most shocking allegations made against him.

    ‘Sexual assault’ on 15-year-old girl

    One woman, named in the investigation as Jade, said she was 15 when she met Walliams in August 2007.

    Jade claims she received a private message from Walliams on MySpace after she commented on a picture of him, where she claims her date of birth was visible on her profile.

    Walliams and Jade arranged to meet at a café in Soho shortly after Walliams’ 36th birthday. Jade alleges after leaving the café, Walliams kissed her forcefully before inviting her back to his house.

    There, she claims Walliams kissed her and pulled down her bra in what she considers to have been “sexual assault” and “grooming”.

    She told ITV News: “He lifted my top up and sucked on my breast and then tried to put my hand down his trousers. That’s when I pulled away and said ‘no’. He had an erection at the time.”

    Lawyers for Walliams deny he had any sexual contact with Jade.

    Walliams accused of sex with 17-year-old fan

    Another woman, named as Alex, said the Little Britain star contacted her in 2004 when she was 15 and studying for her GCSEs. Walliams was 32.

    Walliams was a hero to Alex who wanted to break into comedy and had given the star a copy of a script she had written and her contact details at a fan event.

    She claims Walliams had been surprised to hear she was still at school, asking “right, so you’re, what, 15, 16?”. She said by the time she was 17, they were having sex.

    Alex claims Walliams asked her to send sexual photos of herself. She met him in person for the first time when she went to his Belsize Park home where they had sex, the Guardian reports.

    She told ITV News. “I remember him coming at me and kissing me. It was a really pushy kiss…I kind of followed his lead. We went on his bed and we had sex.”

    She said the three sexual encounters they had were consensual, but she “felt unable to say anything”.

    Walliams said he believed she was 18 at the time they had sex. His lawyers say the suggestion he groomed Alex is false.

    ‘Grooming’ teenage model

    Two former models said they were teenagers when Walliams contacted them. One, Lilly Creightmore, claims she was spotted by the star when she was 16 on the TV show Model Behaviour, then again at an Agent Provocateur event.

    Walliams allegedly persisted in contacting the show’s production company for her contact details before sending her a letter asking to take her out.

    Creightmore was a vulnerable teenager at the time. She told the investigation that Walliams offered to let her sleep at the guest room in his home, but when she arrived there was no bed so she stayed on a sofa.

    Creightmore, who made it clear to Walliams she as not romantically interested in him, claims that every night she was there he asked her to stay in his bed.

    “He definitely crossed the line physically in moments…trying to coerce me into sleeping with him,” Creightmore told ITV News.

    She said her refusal to have sex with Walliams made him angry and she left his home after a few days. She described his behaviour as grooming.

    Walliams said he did not act inappropriately towards Creightmore.

    Another model, name as Ella, said she was asked out by Walliams when she was 19 and he was 36. She was invited to a celebrity party at his house.

    She claims Walliams insisted on giving her a tour of her house. When they got to his bedroom she says Walliams “lent in for a kiss and I just remember going ‘eurgh’ and…running away.”

    Ella told ITV News she felt “vulnerable” and “intimidated”. Afterward, she recalled Walliams sat next to her and put his head on her lap, “begging [her] to stay”.

    “And then something just shifted in him,” she said. “It was basically, like, get out. And I never heard from him again.” She said Walliams carried out “unwanted physical touching and emotional manipulation”.

    Walliams admitted he made a “clumsy pass” at Ella and denied putting his head in her lap.

    Inviting teenage girls to ‘spend the night’

    Another woman, named as Sarah, met Walliams when she was 18 and he was 44 in 2016 after she was invited to a Britain’s Got Talent show by a friend.

    Sarah said he asked them to come to his hotel room before a show where they ate burgers, chips and ice cream.

    A fortnight later, she said she and her friend, who was 18, went to Walliams’ house after he invited them to spend the night.

    She said she drank rosé while Walliams was drinking water and that he began stroking her leg as they watched a film. She also claimed her followed her to the toilet.

    “He kind of put his arms around the back of my waist, pulled me in towards him and tried to kiss me,” she told ITV News. “I was like, ‘I’ve got a boyfriend, you can’t do that’.”

    She said when she realised she had drunk too much she and her friend went up to bed, but recalled Walliams tried to take her towards his room.

    Walliams strongly denies he got Sarah drunk to have sex with her, does not remember anyone being drunk and says he did not force himself onto Sarah. He denies there was any sexual contact with her.

    Teenage girls ‘alone with Walliams in dressing room’

    One of Andy Burnham’s most senior aides is among the women who have made allegations about Walliams.

    Abby Tomlinson, who was a BGT fan, was invited to a show by Walliams when she was 17 and he was 43. She said she went along with a girl who was 13 and the pair were taken to his dressing room along with two other girls, aged 16 and 17.

    Tomlinson said she and the 13-year-old girl were left alone with Walliams in his dressing room, with the door shut. Walliams’ lawyers have denied they were alone and said his “door remained open at all times”.

    But she told ITV News: “That’s not what happened at all…The door was shut and we were alone with him.

    “I know now it’s part of the pattern of inviting young girls and young women to his dressing room. It wasn’t just a one-off thing.”

    Tomlinson, who is now the Prime Minister’s Deputy Digital Communications Chief,  said Walliams’ behaviour is “an open secret in the industry”.

    His lawyers deny that and say he did not focus on young females while he was a BGT judge.

    ‘Something sexual’ about way Walliams behaved at work

    Staff at BGT have said they thought Walliams’ behaviour at work was inappropriate.

    One, named as Mark, said he saw two “very young” people in Walliams’ dressing room on one occasion when Walliams was only wearing a towel.

    “I think there was a general sense on the production that David did what he wanted and that there was something sexual about how he behaved,” Mark added.

    He said he was surprised when Walliams gave him an envelope with £300 at the end of the series.

    “When I mentioned that in front of one of the production coordinators…she said, ‘oh, there’s your hush money’, ” he told ITV News.

    Walliams denied “buying” Mark’s silence and said he tipped staff every year. He said his comments were “smears”.

    Another employee, named as Amy, said she overheard Walliams describing her as “the arse” when she worked on the show in 2017 and she was aged 24.

    “The one interaction I had with him before I started avoiding him, [was when] he’d been staring at my chest rather than acknowledging me as a person,” Amy said .

    Walliams said he can’t remember making the remark and denied staring a her chest or being predatory.
