Women are regularly made to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) before meeting male TV stars, David Walliams's ex-girlfriend has claimed.

Lou Teasdale, a celebrity hair stylist who briefly dated Walliams in 2020, said it was "open and standard protocol" for the privacy of a male celebrity to be prioritised over a woman's safety.

The 43-year-old, who worked as a stylist on Britain's Got Talent, claimed that NDAs removed a woman's voice and left them unsure whether they were able to report any potential sexual assaults or impropriety.
