Prominent Brit David Walliams is denying allegations he's used his celebrity status to pursue teenage girls for sex. 

A joint investigation by ITV News and The Guardian features multiple women who allege the comedian and children's book author targeted them when they were teenagers or young women. 

Correspondent Gavin Grey told Ryan Bridge Walliams acknowledges behaving thoughtlessly, but denies being a sexual predator or breaking the law. 

He says one young woman alleges Walliams first contacted her when she was 15, and they were having sex by the time she was 17. 

He denies grooming her.
