NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Sportscaster and TV host Erin Andrews has settled with two hotel companies that were found partially to blame for a stalker posting secretly-recorded nude video of her on the Internet.
Last month a Nashville jury awarded Andrews $55 million following a trial where jurors also found her stalker at fault. But the two hotel companies that own and once operated the Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt appealed the verdict. By settling now, Andrews stops what could have been years of appeals.
The law firm representing the hotel groups says the settlement agreement was reached Monday morning and is confidential
Andrews testified that she suffered public shame and humiliation as a result of the nude videos posted online.
