Washington, Aug 27: California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has settled a libel lawsuit with a British TV host, who claimed she was groped by the Hollywood actor in December 2000 interview, and later defamed by his assistants during his 2003 campaign for governor.
Anna Richardson filed suit in a British court in May 2004, and claimed the Terminator star fondled her breast during a press conference in London's Dorchester Hotel. She also accused his spokesman Sean Walsh and publicist Sheryl Main of harming her reputation by saying she encouraged it.
However according to Contactmusic, both Richardson and Schwarzenegger and his aides have settled the suit to their satisfaction, without revealing further information.
"Yes, it is true that it has been settled. I don't have any comment but it's settled and I think we're all very happy to put that behind us," said Main. (ANI)
