Ms Legge-Bourke's solicitor Louise Prince told the court that the allegations caused 'serious personal consequences for all concerned'
Prince William's former nanny has received damages from the BBC over "false and malicious" allegations used to obtain Panorama's exclusive 1995 interview with Princess Diana.
Ms Legge-Bourke's solicitor Louise Prince told the court that the allegations caused "serious personal consequences for all concerned". She added that her client had never discovered the source of the falsehoods over the 25 years, believing it likely that the allegations were made in "BBC Panorama's efforts to procure an exclusive interview with Diana, Princess of Wales".
"After Diana, Princess of Wales, became aware of the allegations in late 1995, she became upset with the claimant without apparent justification," she added.
