Comedian Lucy Beaumont says she was one of the whistleblowers who spoke to reporters about David Walliams' alleged sexual misconduct.
A comedian who blew the whistle on British comedian and children's author David Walliams' alleged sexual misconduct says she does not think she will be able to work in the television industry anymore.
A joint investigation by The Guardian newspaper and ITV News has published allegations Walliams allegedly groomed teenage fans and sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl, as far back as 2003.
Walliams has denied targeting teenagers and using his fame to manipulate them to have sex, his lawyers said.
Lucy Beaumont is a UK actress, comedian, and writer, best known for Meet the Richardsons and Hullraisers, and appeared on the first season of Celebrity Traitors UK in 2025.
Speaking to Sky News, Beaumont said she never witnessed the alleged misconduct, but was approached by a male television worker who had previously worked with Walliams.
"They took me aside and said, 'I need to tell somebody, something,' and confided in me about some of his conduct that they were very worried about," Beaumont said.
She claims this worker told her that he was tasked with bringing girls to the comedian's dressing room.
"He didn't think children, possibly adults, over 16," she said.
