Public relations counselors and legal advisors to celebrities say the end is near! Guess they have to appear to earn their keep someone. In this istance it is David Beckham’s inability to forestall the publication of what are probably really very tedious revelations of a gossipy nanny:
Despite failing to win an injunction to stop the publication of a seven-page exposé in Sunday’s News of the World, the couple said they planned to sue Abbie Gibson, who claimed to have witnessed a string of rows between the pair, for breach of confidentiality.
The Lord Judge said:
“It seems to me that those who seek and welcome publicity of every kind bearing upon their private lives so long as it shows them in a favourable light are in no position to complain of an invasion of their privacy by publicity which shows them in an unfavourable light,” he said.
Sounds like Steve Jobs.
