Matt Lucas is seen for first time since sex misconduct claims against his Little Britain co-star David Walliams emerged after he lost injunction bid

Matt Lucas has been pictured for the first time since his former co-star David Walliams was accused of sexual assault and preying on multiple teenage girls. Lucas, who created and starred in the sketch shows Little Britain and Come Fly With Me alongside Walliams, is yet to comment publicly on the allegations. He was pictured out in London this morning, wearing a green puffa jacket, blue cap and sunglasses. He kept his head down as he walked down the street. Lucas, who has not been accused of any wrongdoing, has faced growing calls from fans to speak out about his long-time comedy partner. Walliams denies all the accusations, which were first published by The Guardian and ITV on Tuesday after an injunction was lifted in the High Court. The pair met in 1990 at the National Youth Theatre where they bonded over being the 'funny ones' in their groups. They then went on to launch Little Britain, which began as a radio show in 2000 before running as a television series between 2003 and 2006. Their friendship became strained during the Little Britain Live tour in 2005, according to Lucas. The duo then ended their professional partnership in 2011 and remained out of contact until 2019 when they appeared together in a Little Britain spin-off.

One accuser, named as Jade by ITV News and The Guardian, alleges she was sexually assaulted by Walliams when she was 15 after he contacted her online.Jade claims they met in Soho before he drove her to his home in his Aston Martin. She alleges Walliams sexually assaulted her at Supernova Heights, the mansion once owned by Oasis star Noel Gallagher.'He asked me to come over and gave me a hug. That's when he kissed me,' Jade alleged of Walliams, who was 36 at the time.'He lifted my top up and sucked on my breast and then tried to put my hand down his trousers. That's when I pulled away and said, 'No'. He had an erection at the time,' she said.'I wasn't ready for sex. I didn't want to do that, with him or with anyone. I didn't want to be touched in that way at all. I mean, I was only 15. It's a sexual assault. It's grooming. It's completely wrong in every way.'She claimed she had already confided in him that she had previously been sexually abused by someone else as a child, to which he responded: 'Sorry to hear that.'Another woman, identified only as Alex, claims Walliams began contacting her when she was 15 and studying for her mock General Certificate of Secondary Education after meeting her at a Little Britain fan event where he was dressed as his character Lou, wearing a frizzy wig and leather jacket.The moment they met was captured on camera. They began a sexual relationship around two years later, when she was 17. The pair launched Little Britain, which began as a radio show in 2000 before running as a television series between 2003 and 2006Asked how she feels about him now, she said: 'I want to vomit. I hate him. My body reacts when I think about it. It's like a trauma response. I think I was groomed. One hundred per cent.'One whistleblower at his former publisher, HarperCollins, which made millions from his children's books, claimed: 'There was an agreement, if you went to his house you had to go in a pair. You couldn't go by yourself.'Former Britain's Got Talent judge Walliams, 55, launched a High Court bid to prevent the media reporting the allegations, prompting fevered speculation online about his identity.However, a judge dismissed his claim last week and Walliams did not lodge an appeal before Monday's 4.30pm deadline. ITV News and The Guardian named him at midday on Tuesday.The BBC is in the process of removing some programmes, including Little Britain, while it carries out a review of 'all material featuring and written by David Walliams on our platforms', a spokesman has said. Walliams has also been dropped by his agents, ITG.In a statement to ITV News and The Guardian, Walliams said: 'Looking back, I realise that at times I behaved thoughtlessly towards other people I had casual sexual relationships with.'I realise I did not always take people's feelings properly into account. That is something I regret.'Whilst a power imbalance is inevitable when one party is famous, abusing that power is something else entirely and it is something that I never did.'I am not a sexual predator. I have not broken the law. I am devastated that some of the women I met ten to 20 years ago have now expressed hurt or anger towards me.'Lucas's representatives have been contacted for comment.
