Kevin Clash, voice actor for “Sesame Street’s” Elmo was recently accused of having an inappropriate relationship seven years ago when a 16-year-old boy. Clash was 45.
Clash strongly denies the allegations and says they had a consenting relationship well after his accuser turned 18. Clash took a leave of absence to focus on fighting the accusations.
Meanwhile, a 2010 email has been released of Clash apologizing to his accuser for always talking about sex.
TMZ Reports:
In the email — sent well after the accuser turned 18 — Clash writes, “I’m sorry that I keep talking about sex with you, its driving me insane.”
He adds, “I want you to know that I love you and I will never hurt you. I’m here to protect you and make sure your dreams come true.”
Clash continued, “I’ll have my assistant book a ticket for you to come to NY and we can talk about this in person.”
As we previously reported, Clash has acknowledged having a sexual relationship with the accuser but insists it only took place AFTER the accuser was an adult.
