David Walliams dropped by book publisher.
Acclaimed children's author and TV personality David Walliams is no longer with his UK book publisher, the company has said.
An official for the publisher stated: "After careful consideration, and following the appointment of its new CEO, HarperCollins UK has chosen to cease publishing additional books by David Walliams."
Reports indicate that the conclusion was reached following an investigation into claims about questionable actions directed at women.
The company did not confirm the reasons for its decision, adding: "We refrain from speaking about private personnel issues."
A Prolific Writing Journey
Walliams stands as a most best-selling authors for kids, boasting over in excess of 60 million copies internationally in 55 languages.
His inaugural foray into kids' literature, *The Boy in the Dress*, was published by HarperCollins fifteen years ago.
A number of his titles, including *Gangsta Granny* and *Billionaire Boy*, have found new life as TV movies.
He has published more than 40 books combined, encompassing a festive story titled *Santa & Son*, which was released through HarperCollins in October.
Television and Literature
He first rose to fame on the television comedy show *Little Britain* and has been honored with National Television Awards for his work as a judge on *Britain's Got Talent*.
He was made an OBE back in 2017 for his services to the charitable sector and arts community.
This development follows the selection of Kate Elton as HarperCollins UK's recent CEO in October.
