Kate Moss wins damages in 'orgy' lawsuit

News of the World offers Kate Moss apology and settlement over orgy claims

The News of the World has been forced to offer Kate Moss a public apology and a cash settlement after printing false rumours that she enjoyed an alcohol-fuelled orgy at her 34th birthday celebrations.

The paper suggested the party-loving model had enjoyed a intimate session with a man and two other women at the Dorchester Hotel party.

But the publication has now admitted they were wrong and have released the following statement:

‘We would like to apologise to Kate Moss and to her family and friends for any offence or distress caused by our article last week relating to alleged events at her 34th birthday party at the Dorchester Hotel. The News of the World was offered detailed information from a normally reliable source which we now accept was untrue. We regret publication of that material in the RAV column and have agreed to pay Kate a sum in damages.’
