Lara Bingle is ‘Coming Off a Low Base’ in Her Defamation Claims

Posted by The Spy | Posted in Firm Gossip, Tresscox Lawyers | Posted on 9.00am

Last week Lara Bingle announced an intention to sue AFL footballer Brendon Fevola over the dissemination of of a revealing photograph taken of the model as she showered, allegedly by Fevola.

In relation to her prospects of success, our favourite Tresscox partner Nic Pullen, who is currently retained by former wine-o Derryn Hinch, had the following to say:

Nicholas Pullen says she would “have to prove [the photograph] came from Fevola and then she would have to prove when Fevola sent it off; the reasonable person would expect it to end up in Woman’s Day.”

…”The next step in any defamation formula is: how is it making people think less of Lara Bingle than they already do. Well, she’s coming off a low base on that one. In the version of the photograph I have seen, it doesn’t look like you are seeing terribly much more of Lara Bingle than you have already seen. It would be a bit different if we were looking at a photograph of the Governor-General. So I think you can pretty well safely strike defamation off.”

Do you think Lara Bingle is coming off a low base?

Does your job description entitle you to look at bare-breasted photographs?
