Amanda Palmer Denies Human Trafficking Allegations in Lawsuit Involving Ex-Husband Neil Gaiman: “My heart goes out to all survivors”
It’s been several months now since shocking allegations surfaced regarding notable writer Neil Gaiman dropped. Gamian was accused of sexual misconduct by eight women, and the charges eventually expanded to include human trafficking which in turn also included his wife Amanda Palmer.
Scarlett Pavlovich, a former nanny for Neil Gaiman and his ex-wife Amanda Palmer, has filed a lawsuit alleging that Gaiman sexually assaulted her multiple times during her employment. The lawsuit also accuses Palmer of facilitating the abuse by recruiting Pavlovich and failing to warn her about Gaiman’s alleged history of sexual misconduct.
Pavlovich claims she was economically coerced into staying with the couple due to her lack of support and homelessness. She seeks at least $7 million in damages for physical, emotional, and psychological harm
Palmer has now turned to social media to deny allegations. She thanked people for respecting her privacy during this difficult time, especially for the sake of her young child. She stated that she will not address the specific allegations made against her right now, but she denies them. Palmer added that she will respond to the claims when the time is right and expressed her support for survivors of similar situations.
I thank you all deeply for continuing to respect my recent request for privacy as I navigate this extremely difficult moment. I must protect my young child and his right to privacy.
With that as my priority, I will not respond to the specific allegations being made against me except to say that I deny the allegations and will respond in due course. My heart goes out to all survivors.
