Dropped by HarperCollins
In 2025, HarperCollins terminated their contract with Walliams following a year-long investigation into alleged inappropriate behaviour towards young women at the company, during which one employee was given a five-figure payoff and female staff were advised to only visit him in pairs.[11] No new titles by Walliams will be published by the company.[11] In 2018, Walliams's books constituted 44% of all sales of HarperCollins children's titles, generating revenue of £100 million by 2019, but in the summer of 2025 sales of his books fell by 60%.[11] HarperCollins had recently replaced Charlie Redmayne as CEO with Kate Elton.[11

They must be pretty sure there's something there to want to disassociate themselves as his books sell very well.

I'm sure lots of people have heard/seen the rumours online of behaviour like this for a little while now. I think he's always been quite creepy and all that charity stuff just screamed 'trying to bolster his image to hide something"

He's always come across as a bit weird tbf.

There are now shit loads of short videos of him on twitter behaving oddly towards members of the public on stage with him.
Also some Barry Cryer quotes that were not very complimentary about him. There is a lot of hate for the man.

To be fair we could do with deporting a number of these ‘comedians’

David Williams
Matt Lucas
Michael McIntyre
Jimmy Carr
Kevin Bishop

Especially the last one.

Should be locked up for the books alone my lad went through a phase of bringing them home from school. They were dross with a fart fixation, desperately trying to copy Roald Dahl (also a bit of a wrong un apparently) but the plots were crap and they had none of the charm
