There have been some new developments in actor Rob Lowe's nanny controversy. According to People magazine, Lowe's former nanny, Jessica Gibson, 24, filed a lawsuit on Monday claiming that Lowe touched her inappropriately and exposed himself to her.
According to the 18-page document Gibson filed in a Santa Barbara, Calif., court, she worked for Lowe and his wife, Sheryl, for seven years. Lowe reportedly "placed his hands inside Gibson's pants" several times between September 2005 and January 2008. Lowe also apparently "grabbed her buttocks without consent" in December 2007.
These allegations come as a shock to the Lowes. Their lawyer Stanton "Larry" Stein read in a statement on the Today show on Tuesday, "Ms. Gibson's older sister worked for the Lowes for seven years. Ms. Gibson worked for the Lowes on and off for seven years. She left at lesat two times to pursue other jobs, and returned each time asking for more hours. She sent two emails the day after she left, both saying she loved the Lowes and her leaving had nothing to do with them but her heart wasn't into being a nanny anymore.
"This is totally inconsistent with the latest allegations. An investigation of dozens of present and former employees has failed to find one single person to verify her allegations. The allegations in the complain are simply untrue."
A hearing date for the case has yet to be set.
