Author Neil Gaiman has publicly denied allegations of sexual misconduct that were initially made against him over a year and a half ago. In a statement released on Monday, Gaiman described the claims as a “smear campaign.”
The writer has not provided additional details beyond his denial. The allegations first surfaced in early 2022, but no formal legal action has been reported.
