Actor Noel Clarke has lost his High Court libel claim against the publisher of the Guardian after a judge found he was 'not a credible or reliable witness'.
The shamed star's career is now in tatters after the court defeat.
Clarke, 49, sued Guardian News and Media (GNM) over seven articles and a podcast, including an article in April 2021 that said 20 women who knew him professionally had come forward with allegations of misconduct.
Clarke denied the allegations, while GNM defended its reporting as being both true and in the public interest.
Mrs Justice Steyn dismissed Clarke's claim in a judgment this morning, saying that the newspaper 'succeeded in establishing both truth and public interest defences to the libel claim'.
