London's Metropolitan Police has launched an investigation into a series of alleged "serious" sex offences against television personality David Walliams.
The force said it has received a number of non-recent allegations against the former Britain's Got Talent judge "in recent days".
In a statement this afternoon, the Met said the complaints made are separate from those previously reported by ITV News and The Guardian.
But it added those reports are being reviewed by officers "to establish whether there is any evidence of offences".
The best-selling author was recently named as the man accused of sexual misconduct and abusing his power to groom teenagers as young as 15 after temporary reporting restrictions were lifted.
Mr Walliams denies any wrongdoing.
