He says he's decided to speak publicly about the reports because he believes some of his actions have been elaborated.
'On the recording, I described events that took place 20, 32, and 40 years ago,' Collins adds. 'The publication of the recording has resulted in assumptions and innuendos about what I did that go far beyond what actually occurred. As difficult as this is, I want people to know the truth.'
He says the only time he touched a girl inappropriately was in 1973, when he was 25 and a pre-teen girl came to stay with him and his first wife.
Collins says he exposed himself to the girl twice before, but took things to another level on the visit.
'When the girl and I were watching TV alone, I moved her hand in such a way that caused her to touch me inappropriately. It lasted less than a minute, during which there was no gratification,' Collins said. 'I then left the room. I had no further physical contact with her. It was a completely impulsive act and it's haunted me ever since to think of what I put her through.'
Over the next two decades, Collins says he continued to expose himself to two more teenage girls, once in 1982 and again in 1994.

April Price was one of those girls, and she is the first of Collins' victims to come forward and tell her story in a Daily Mail Online world exclusive.
April was 13 when the then 35-year-old Collins exposed his naked penis and body to her — not once, as he's claimed, but on three separate occasions.
In an interview with the Daily Mail Online, April, now 44 and a wife and mother in Oklahoma, breaks her silence, as she re-lives the sexual assaults she endured while on summer break in 1983.
'I was visiting my aunt,' April recalls. 'She was an executive producer in Los Angeles. She lived in a walled-in, gated community of apartment complexes and her apartment was kitty corner to Mr Collins.'
