A former live-in nanny for writer Neil Gaiman and his wife at the time, musician Amanda Palmer, has filed a lawsuit against the now estranged couple, seeking damages of upwards of $1 million alleging that both Gaiman and Palmer “knowingly recruited, enticed, harbored, transported, and/or obtained [her] for labor or services while knowing she would be forced to engage in sexual acts as a condition of receiving the pay and housing they promised her.”
Scarlett Pavlovich, who claims to have been homeless and estranged from her own family when she was "recruited" to work for Gaiman and Palmer in 2020, was only 22 at the time. In a damning exposé published by New York Magazine in January, she states that she was raped by Gaiman and referred to as a "slave" by both the writer and his son.
