Rob Lowe Faces Harrassment Claim from Second Nanny

Another nanny for Rob Lowe reportedly filed a countersuit Wednesday in a Los Angeles court, accusing Rob Lowe's wife, Sheryl Loweof sexual harassment, according to People.

Laura Boyce worked for the Lowe family for seven months in 2007 and now claims Sheryl created an:
"extremely sexually offensive and hostile work environment ... behaving in a ... perverted, disgusting and crude manner."
Boyce also alleges that Sheryl referred to Boyce's boyfriend, an NBA player using the "n" word. Allegedly, Sheryl "walked around naked, completely exposing herself" to Boyce, inquiring about her boyfriend's private parts and openly discussed Sheryl's sex life with Rob. Boyce claims wrongful termination against both Rob and Sheryl, in addition to unpaid wages and other labor code violations.

Attorney for the Lowes, Larry Stein, claimed the lawsuit:
"seeks to drag (Lowe's) wife and children into the fray" with "false allegations."
Boyce's lawyer, Gloria Allred said:
"The lawsuit speaks for itself."
Apparently, Rob and Sheryl preemptively filed lawsuits against Boyce and two other former employees on April 7, claiming they're the victims of an extortion scheme, let by Jessica Gibson, their former nanny. The third employee, Peter Clements, the Lowes' former private chef, has yet to file a legal response.

Yikes! It looks like Rob and his wife are in some deep sh*t with their former staff. Now that three former employees have had issue, it's appearing like the Lowes are pretty difficult people. Too bad - I take back what I said about how I wouldn't mind working for Rob now.
