I don't condone Gaimans' behaviour, but I never made him a hero nor expected him to be perfect, either. Had he been writing non-fiction stuff about morals, marital fidelity and do forth, then it wouild be right to reject the work along with the author. We correctly condemn millionaire 'evangelists' for their hypocrisy.

But Gaiman writes fiction and so do I. OK, I'm an amateur, but even so, I write about people who aren't me. They want things I don't want, believe things I don't, do thngs I never would and don't do things I would. It's fiction: imaginary people in an imaginary world.
