Neil Gaiman Says Rape Accuser Is ‘Fantasist’ and Produces Texts to Refute Claim


Neil Gaiman produced voluminous WhatsApp messages between himself and former babysitter Scarlett Pavlovich, which he says refutes her rape claims.

“The Sandman” author Neil Gaiman fired back at his former babysitter on Tuesday, calling her a “fantasist” and producing WhatsApp messages that he says refute her sexual abuse claims. Gaiman and his estranged wife, Amanda Palmer, were sued in federal court last month for alleged sexual assault and trafficking. In January, he wrote on his personal blog that he had never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity, though he regretted having been “emotionally unavailable” and “careless with people’s hearts and feelings.”
