Figure caption, Watch: Author says she was'warned' about David Walliams' behaviour Author Chloe Combi has said she had heard rumours that there were real concerns about David Walliams's behaviour within the publishing industry more than a decade ago. Combi told BBC News she had heard there were allegations about his behaviour around young female staff and says she was told in 2015 to warn schools that he was not an appropriate booking. An investigation by the Guardian and ITV News alleged that Walliams has been accused by several women of sexual misconduct, inappropriate behaviour and abusing his position, which he denies. HarperCollins, which published Walliams's best-selling children's books, dropped Walliams last year after an investigation into his behaviour.
