Popular comedian and former Britain's Got Talent judge, David Walliams, is taking legal action against production company Fremantle after being fired from the show.

Walliams is seeking significant damages following his dismissal, which came after he was caught making derogatory comments about contestants during a break in filming. The leaked transcript revealed him using offensive language towards an elderly performer. As a result of the legal battle, Walliams' relationship with co-star Simon Cowell has reportedly suffered strain, leading to speculation about the future of their friendship.

In a conversation about the leaked comments, Sharon Osbourne defends the comedian, stating, "I'm not saying that I've been an angel my entire life, that I don't say to a co-host, you know, even something sexual, but it's, we're mates, and I'm not going to lie, and it's, you know, you do it, but it's not meant, it's not serious, it's just banter, you know, to keep everybody up and whatever."
