Beckhams
Fear More Nanny Revelations
7/5/05
Soccer
star David Beckham's fears he will face more revelations concerning his
marriage to former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham when their former nanny
takes her grievances to an employment tribunal. Abbie Gibson, 27, claims
constructive dismissal from her $72,000-per-year job and is seeking
$108,000 in damages.
British
court protocol will allow Gibson to raise any issue without fear of a
subsequent libel lawsuit. Gibson sold her story of life with the Beckhams
to a British Sunday newspaper earlier this year (05), despite signing a
confidentiality agreement. She claimed David wanted a divorce and
substantiated allegations the Real Madrid player had engaged in
extra-marital affairs.
The
Beckhams are simultaneously suing Gibson for breach of confidentiality and
hope to be awarded the money she received for her story. |
