Rob Lowe's ex-nanny denies 'sexual predator' allegations

Washington, July 3 (ANI): Rob Lowe's ex-nanny, who is suing him for sexual abuse, has denied allegations made by the actor's former employees, who branded her a 'sexual predator'.

Last week's filing included statements from one of the Lowes' former chefs and a tennis instructor who both claimed Gibson regularly behaved in a sexually suggestive way around them, sometimes while the Lowes' young sons were around.

Tennis instructor Nigel Armstrong's had revealed that she pursued him even after he told her he had a serious girlfriend. However, Gibson has denied all allegations.

"We broke up because I learned that he had a girlfriend while he was seeing me. He pursued me after the breakup," E! Online quoted Gibson as saying.

Hitting back at Sheryl Lowe's declaration that Gibson would openly flirt with him while she was around Gibson said, "I did not flirt with or seek sexual or romantic attention from Rob Lowe.

"In fact, I protested against his attempts to obtain sexual gratification from me," she added.

Moreover, Gibson has also hit back at the statement made by her "estranged half-sister," who used to be the Lowes' estate manager, that Gibson was required to sign a confidentiality agreement when she came to work for the family.

"I do not think that I ever signed a confidentiality agreement...I do not remember being asked to sign one," Gibson stated in her own declaration, which was filed July 2 and obtained by TMZ.com.

She also denied ever telling her half-sis, Jamie, that she would never have gone after the Lowes for sexual harassment if they had just paid her the 200 dollars they owed her.

"Back when she and I were speaking, I expressed the view that my claims were substantial," Gibson said.

Meanwhile, Lowes have also sued her for breach of contract, trespass and other work-related no-nos, claiming she had spread rumours about their personal life to third parties and had engaged in a plot to extort money from them. (ANI)
