Neil Gaiman Faces Sexual Misconduct Allegations

Neil Gaiman is facing multiple allegations of sexual misconduct from several women, including claims of coercion and abuse during his marriage to Amanda Palmer. Scarlett Pavlovich, one of the accusers, alleges she was assaulted by Gaiman while babysitting for their child, and when she informed Palmer, the response was limited to suggesting therapy for Gaiman. Another woman, identified as Rachel, described feeling treated 'like a toy' in her interactions with Gaiman, which she claims were facilitated by Palmer. Criticism has emerged against Palmer for her perceived complicity in Gaiman's alleged behavior, with calls for her to speak out amidst growing backlash. Gaiman has denied the allegations, asserting that all encounters were consensual and part of BDSM activities. The situation has ignited broader discussions about power dynamics and accountability in relationships involving abuse.
