Associated Press
LONDON —
American actress Koo Stark, a former girlfriend of Prince Andrew, won $534,000 in libel damages today from a newspaper that falsely implied she had an adulterous affair with the prince after her marriage.
A High Court jury unanimously found that two articles printed in the tabloid Sunday People on successive weekends in December, 1985, had defamed the 32-year-old actress.
The jury also awarded Stark undisclosed costs against the newspaper’s publisher, Robert Maxwell.
