Liz Hurley has reportedly gagged a maid who claimed the model paid her just £1.40 an hour.
Violet D'Souza was due to make the claims about Liz - who has a reported £13 million fortune - and her millionaire husband Arun Nayer at an employment tribunal tomorrow (21.02.08).
However, the case has now been dropped after Violet was offered a five-figure settlement, which prevents her from discussing anything.
Violet claimed she was working up to seven days a week at the couple's London home, sometimes starting the day at 7.30am and not finishing until 3am the next morning, Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper reports.
Her chores included cleaning, cooking and babysitting Liz's five-year-old son Damian.
She allegedly received just £100 a week, which works out between £1.40 and £1.60 an hour, way below the UK minimum wage of £5.52.
Violet - whose main perk was the offer of airline tickets to see her family in India - claimed she was fired last August without notice.
