The drama keeps coming in the case of Rob Lowe versus his nanny accusers, as his attorney, Larry Stein, issued a statement late Wednesday in response to a second nanny’s sexual harassment claim against the actor and his wife.

According to press reports, Lowe’s camp is “pretty much calling it a blatant attempt on lawyer Gloria Allred’s part to divert attention from her other client, Nanny No. 1, who’s also suing the Lowes.”

“Having struck out against Rob Lowe, Gloria Allred now seeks to drag his wife and children into the fray,” Stein said.

“In response to a lawsuit against Laura Boyce by the Lowes, Ms. Allred filed a cross-complaint on behalf of Boyce, which contains false allegations, in an apparent attempt to divert the negative publicity which Allred’s client, [Jessica] Gibson, has universally received. Although framed as a sexual harassment claim against both Sheryl and Rob Lowe, the cross-complaint alleges only words by Sheryl and never mentions any words or conduct by Rob whatsoever. The alleged statements by Sheryl are totally unrelated to, and do not provide any support for, Gibson’s claims against Rob,” Stein added.

The accuser alleges that “(Sheryl Lowe) would walk around naked; ask personal, graphic questions about Boyce’s boyfriend; use offensive language; and talk about her sex life with Rob.”
