David Walliams has been revealed as the famous man who brought legal action against two media organisations to prevent them from publishing allegations of sexual misconduct.
The former Britain's Got Talent judge had sought an injunction against The Guardian and ITV because of a risk he would take his own life, after two previous suicide attempts.
Lawyers for the media organisations previously told the High Court in London the allegations they want to report involve the man's alleged "abuse of his power and status" to contact young women and try to engage in "inappropriate sexual activity, including potential criminal activity".
