Comedian and former teaching assistant says she risked her career to report alleged misconduct and calls for industry change.

From BBC article - https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckn8w8p9370zo

In a letter addressed to journalists working on the ITV and Guardian investigation, Walliams wrote: "Looking back, I realise that at times I behaved thoughtlessly towards other people I had casual sexual relationships with.

"I realise I did not always take people's feelings properly into account. That is something I regret. And whilst a power imbalance is inevitable when one party is famous, abusing that power is something else entirely and it is something that I never did."

He added: "I am not a sexual predator. I have not broken the law, but I am devastated that some of the women I met 10 to 20 years ago have now expressed hurt or anger towards me."

After the investigation was published on Tuesday, Walliams's long-time literary agent Independent Talent Group confirmed it had dropped him.
