Disturbing Allegations and Denials
The allegations are serious, with three women claiming they were drugged by Copperfield before being forced into sexual activity. Four others allege inappropriate touching or groping during live performances.

David Copperfield vehemently denies all allegations through his representatives. They call the claims "false and scurrilous" and insist they contradict his character. Copperfield's team further emphasizes his history of advocating for women's safety.
