The Sandman author Neil Gaiman’s former wife, Amanda Palmer, has made a statement to NME regarding the allegations made against the writer in a report by New York Magazine.

Gaiman has denied the claims in a statement on his website.Replying to NME’s request for comment, a representative for Palmer said: “While Ms.

Palmer is profoundly disturbed by the allegations that Mr. Gaiman has abused several women, at this time her primary concern is, and must remain, the well-being of her son and therefore, to guard his privacy, she has no comment on these allegations.”Taking to Instagram soon after, Palmer added: “As there are ongoing custody and divorce proceedings, I am not able to offer public comment.

Please understand that I am first and foremost a parent. I ask for privacy at this time.”Acclaimed singer-songwriter and performance artist Palmer, formerly of The Dresden Dolls, first met Gaiman in 2008.
