And then say you're sorry. That's the story on the Posh side of the street. David and Victoria Beckham have finally received an apology from a former nanny, who broke her confidentiality agreement with the couple by selling a story to a tabloid. Details anyone? [David and Victoria Beckham received a High Court apology
from their former nanny today over her disclosure of private and confidential
information about them following her resignation. A judge in London heard that Abbie Gibson had now agreed to
give 'permanent undertakings of confidentiality' to the couple. Their solicitor, Gerrard Tyrrell, told Mr Justice Eady: 'Ms
Gibson has also agreed to the withdrawal of her claim for constructive
dismissal that she made against the claimants which was issued in the Employment
Tribunal in August 2005.' Mr Tyrrell said Ms Gibson 'has unconditionally apologised to
David and Victoria Beckham and their family for breaching her duties of
confidence'. He said today's proceedings against Ms Gibson resulted from
the publication of a newspaper article in April 2005, captioned 'Beckhams
behind closed doors'.]
I'm guessing those were some powerful screws put to Abbie Gibson! If you sign a document promising you won't blab, you probably shouldn't go to the media. However, who could blame the poor girl for wanting to dish about Posh and Becks? My guess would be Victoria might be teensy bit difficult to work for... Alas, the scoop we got is all we're gonna get, for now.
