Gaiman has denied this claim as well. The Sandman author maintains that his relationship with K was never unlawful and that he’s “disturbed” to be accused of such behavior. According to Gaiman, K’s allegations stem from “regret” over the relationship she had when it was over. He also attributed Scarlett’s allegations to a condition she has that’s associated with false memories, but the Tortoise report noted that this isn’t supported by the accuser’s medical records.

You know, you’d think that Neil fucking Gaiman of all people could come up with more plausible gaslighting than this, but alas

Even taking him at his word, he made sexual advances on an employee of his that’s like 40+ years younger than him (in his own home, too) on what is presumably her first day working for him. Power imbalances stacked on power imbalances.

Yeah the “she made accusations because of regret over the relationship” angle doesn’t pass the sniff test normally, but it’s 100x more dubious when we’re talking about famous rich white dude writer.
