David Walliams has been named as the celebrity who tried to block publication of sexual misconduct allegations.
ITV News and the Guardian have reported allegations the comedian and author groomed fans as young as 15 and harassed women in the workplace over a number of years.
Walliams has denied all allegations but acknowledged "at times I behaved thoughtlessly towards other people I had casual sexual relationships with".
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.”
He had asked the High Court to block the publication of the investigation, with his lawyers arguing if the allegations were made public he would likely kill himself.
The court refused the request, saying the risks could be mitigated and that it was not the court's responsibility to protect his wellbeing.
