| Costner Named in Hotel Sex Act Case Hollywood star Kevin Costner has been revealed as the celebrity accused of performing a sex act while being given a massage at a famous golf hotel.
The A-list actor was accused of the incident at the spa at The Old Course Hotel in St Andrews, Fife, in October 2004.
A legal ruling had banned identifying Costner, who had been in St Andrews with his wife, where they attended the Dunhill Links pro-celebrity golf event.
The 34-year-old spa worker at the centre of the allegations initially claimed unfair dismissal and sexual discrimination against the hotel after she lost her job.
She claimed that she was unfairly dismissed after she made the complaint to management about the 51-year-old actor, whose best-known films include Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves and The Bodyguard.
However, just before a tribunal hearing, the woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, settled with hotel lawyers.
And tribunal chairman Nicol Hosie ruled that both the hotel and Costner could be identified and that there was not a strong enough case for their names to be withheld.
The woman made no comment as she left the tribunal, which was in Dundee. |
