'I felt like I was being manipulated': Woman alleges Walliams groomed her as a teenager

Lilly Creightmore, who has alleged Walliams "groomed" her as a teenager, has told BBC Newsnight that she was "angry" at his behaviour. She said that Walliams invited her to move in with him while she was "in between living situations". She was 18 at the time.

She says she "felt instantly pressured to share a bed with him" but told him she was not interested in him in a romantic way. After about a week of refusing Walliams's advances, Creightmore said "he started to become very moody and rude and cold". According to ITV, Walliams says he did not act inappropriately and did not "target" her because she was "vulnerable" or "young".

TV agent Dermot McNamara, who has represented someone allegedly groomed by Walliams, told BBC Newsnight he had informed "authorities and broadcasters" about Walliams's alleged "inappropriate behaviour" but no action was taken. Walliams denies all allegations, and in a statement to journalists shared by the Guardian said he was "not a sexual predator" and had not "broken the law".
