Neil Gaiman: Woman files civil lawsuit against author and his ex-wife

A woman has filed civil lawsuits against Neil Gaiman and his ex-wife in the US, accusing the British author of sexually assaulting her.

The lawsuits against Gaiman and Amanda Palmer were filed in Wisconsin, Massachusetts and New York.

The woman alleges the former couple violated laws on federal human trafficking, with complaints of assault, battery and inflicting emotional distress against Gaiman and negligence against Palmer. She is seeking at least $7m (£5.6m) in damages.

Gaiman, 64, has denied allegations of sexual misconduct made by eight women, saying he has “never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity with anyone. Ever”.

The lawsuits claim the woman was befriended by Palmer when she was 22 and homeless in New Zealand and began working for the couple, which is when the assaults began.

According to the lawsuits, Palmer told the woman there had been previous complaints from more than a dozen different women.
