David Walliams accused of sexual misconduct after losing injunction bid

Asked how she feels about Walliams now, she told the investigation: "I think I was groomed. 100%."

Walliams told the publications he believed she was 18 at the time they had sex. The investigation said Alex had joked to Walliams in an email she was "old enough to go drinking", but was actually 17.

Walliams denied grooming Alex. He said he is "mortified to learn" that their "brief, consensual relationship has caused her sadness".

Jade also alleged she met Walliams when she was 15, in August 2007, in a Soho cafe.

Later, at his home, she alleged, he kissed her, lifted up her T-shirt, went on to commit an act that she now characterises as a sexual assault, and tried to put her hand down his trousers. She referred to what happened that night as "unwanted physical touching and emotional manipulation".

She said she considers what she says happened to her to have been "grooming", adding: "It's completely wrong in every way."

Walliams strongly denied that he had any sexual contact with Jade. He said he rejected any allegations of criminal activity and says he has never engaged in the grooming of young women.

Another woman, named as Ella, says she was 19 and working as a model when she rejected Walliams when he tried to kiss her during a tour of his home.

She referred to what happened that night as "unwanted physical touching and emotional manipulation".

Walliams said he made a "clumsy pass" at Ella, and he made no further approaches. He said he had no intention of intimidating Ella, or making her feel uncomfortable.

Other women claimed they were invited to Walliams's dressing room at Britain's Got Talent, or contacted by him after attending a taping.
