Liz Hurley has settled a ‘slave labour’ law suit filed against her by her former maid, who claimed the actress paid her just $2.40 an hour.
Violet D'Souza, from India, says she worked at Hurley and her husband Arun Nayar’s London home for between 60 and 70 hours per week for four years, for which she was paid 8,000 rupees a week ($200).
