So are you insinuating she's only speaking out for financial/personal gain and that you don't believe her account of what she's experienced in the industry? Or is your point that she should have spoken out at the time?
Either way, your post echoes the worst traits of the grape apologists supporting Brand, sad to say.
What are the allegations against Ross, Fry And Fielding
In the Power & Silence Documentary there was reference to how significant Walliams was for HarperCollins.
He was a golden goose.
David Walliams's books accounted for 44% of HarperCollins's children's book sales in the UK in 2018.
