BBC Pays Royal Nanny for Shyster Bashir's Dishonesty

The BBC has reportedly offered Princes William and Harry's former nanny a six-figure sum in settlement after shyster reporter Martin Bashir spun a pack of lies in order to secure an interview with Diana, Princess of Wales.

According to The Telegraph, Tiggy Legge-Bourke, now known as Tiggy Pettifer, was offered the payout after the sleazy journalist, who can't lie straight in bed at night, falsely claimed that Prince Charles was in love with her, in order to secure his bombshell 1995 Panorama Special interview with the Princess.

Mrs Pettifer was live-in nanny to the Princes between 1993 and 1999. Bashir is said to have falsely claimed that her and Prince Charles jetted off for a fortnight-long romantic break together.

Embellishing the story even further, Bashir is said to have falsely implied that Mrs Pettifer had become pregnant to Prince Charles. He even showed Diana a receipt to support the falsehood that Mrs Pettifer had undergone an abortion.

A BBC insider told The Telegraph: "Tiggy Legge-Bourke was right at the centre of Bashir's manipulation and it is right that the damage caused to her is recognised by the BBC."

Matt Weisler, a former BBC graphic designer who blew the whistle on Bashir, is understood to have been offered a payment of between £750,000 and £1 million.

He was forced out of the BBC after reporting concerns that Bashir had made him mock up false documents.

In the past decade the BBC has paid out almost £10 million of TV licence payer's cash to the victims of its journalistic impropriety and institutional sexual abuse. Almost half of that amount has gone to the victims of resident sexual predator Jimmy Savile, who abused dozens of young men and women right under the noses of his BBC bosses.
