David Walliams has been dropped by his publisher HarperCollins UK.
A spokesperson for the company said it had decided not to release any new titles by Walliams "after careful consideration, and under the leadership of its new CEO".
"HarperCollins takes employee well-being extremely seriously and has processes in place for reporting and investigating concerns," they added.
"To respect the privacy of individuals, we do not comment on internal matters."
The 54-year-old, who shot to fame with the BBC sketch show Little Britain, is one of the country's best-selling children's authors.
He has written more than 40 books, which have sold more than 60 million copies worldwide and been translated into 55 languages, according to his website.
His first children's book, The Boy in the Dress, was published by HarperCollins in 2008.
Walliams is also known for Come Fly With Me, another BBC sketch show, and was formerly part of the judging panel for ITV's Britain's Got Talent.
He was awarded an OBE in 2017 for services to charity and the arts.
HarperCollins UK announced in October that it had appointed Kate Elton as its new chief executive, following the departure of former boss Charlie Redmayne.
Walliams has been contacted for comment.
