She’s won my heart too!

Nicole Kidman Wins Libel Case Over Adultery Slur
LONDON (Reuters) – Oscar-winning star Nicole Kidman won a five-figure sum and an apology Tuesday from a British newspaper that said she had had an affair with actor Jude Law and was to blame for the break-up of his marriage.
At London’s High Court, the tabloid Sun newspaper admitted the allegations about Kidman, which were published in March, were untrue.
“The defendants apologize to the claimant for the distress and embarrassment this article has caused,” said the Sun’s lawyer Daniel Taylor.
Kidman, who was not in court, said in a statement she was glad the case was over.
Two months ago she won damages against another British newspaper that had published the same claims.
The marriage split between “Road To Perdition” star Law and his wife Sadie Frost triggered widespread media coverage in Britain earlier in the year.
