David Walliams’ lavish London home has come into the spotlight after the four-bedroom townhouse was listed for sale at a staggering £10.5 million, amid a major controversy surrounding allegations of inappropriate sexual behaviour towards teenage fans. The 55-year-old comedian, children’s author and former Britain’s Got Talent judge was named on November 10 by The Guardian and ITN following a High Court battle over an attempt to prevent the publication of the allegations.According to the reports, Walliams was accused of targeting girls and women, some as young as 15, for sexual purposes. He has denied the allegations.Located in the sought-after Regent’s Park neighbourhood of London, the sprawling townhouse was purchased by Walliams for £8.45 million in 2013, according to HM Land Registry records. The property, situated on Prince Albert Road, is reportedly being marketed for £10.5 million.

While it remains unclear exactly when the property was first listed, its asking price was reduced at the beginning of October, according to a Rightmove listing. Official documents identify the owner as David Edward Williams, the comedian’s real name. He uses the professional name David Walliams to avoid a name clash.The property is also listed as the service address for Little Britain Limited, where Walliams is identified as a person with significant control, according to Companies House records.

Why David Walliams was named after a High Court battle
Walliams’ property listing has attracted attention at a time when the comedian is facing serious allegations. On November 10, The Guardian and ITN identified him as the celebrity who had sought legal protection to prevent the publication of allegations concerning inappropriate sexual behaviour.The legal proceedings reportedly involved claims that the celebrity posed a serious risk of suicide if publicly identified. However, a High Court judge ruled that this was not sufficient grounds to prevent the media organisations from publishing their reports.Following the ruling, both The Guardian and ITN named Walliams and published their accounts of the allegations. Walliams denies the claims against him.
From Little Britain fame to Britain’s Got Talent and children’s books
Walliams first rose to prominence in the early 2000s through the popular comedy sketch show Little Britain, which he created and performed alongside Matt Lucas. The show became a major success and established him as one of Britain’s recognisable television comedians.He subsequently expanded his career into television presenting, judging and writing. His stint as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent further strengthened his public profile, while his children’s books made him a widely recognised author among younger readers.However, his publishing association with HarperCollins came to an end in 2025 after allegations of inappropriate behaviour towards young women emerged.
