So former call girl Irma Nicki was the one who made the initial claim to In Touch Weekly that she had a one-night stand with David Beckham. A second call girl who reportedly was present supported theses claims. David sued for libel. Now Irma is countersuing David, claiming she’s telling the truth, reports E! News.
“The former call girl who was sent to the hospital earlier this week as a result of the hounding she received at the hands of David Beckham and his legal team has struck back,” their statement began.
Without specifically mentioning any affair or the In Touch report, they claim that Nici did “tell the truth to the press” and that should keep her from being targeted in a lawsuit.
“California law does not allow public figures like David Beckham to stifle free speech. Maybe he didn’t live here in Los Angeles long enough to learn how precious we here consider our rights to tell the truth in print,” says Jensen.
“Beckham must have confused American law with the law back in his home country, where there isn’t a such a sacred respect for free speech.”Ouch. Here’s what I’m wondering: if there isn’t a tape or text messages or some other confirmation (and no one’s mentioned anything like that), how can this ever be more than a “she-said, he-said” story? Well, the lawyers, at least, are sure to make a lot of money off this whole mess.
