A Southampton, England tribunal has found Sting and his wife Trudie Styler guilty of "shameful conduct" when they fired former chef Jane Martin while she was pregnant.


Martin's £28,000 ($56,000) a year job with the Sting, real name Gordon Sumner, and Styler was terminated in April 2006 after eight years of service.

A tribunal has ruled the couple had unfairly dismissed Martin and that she had been the victim of sexual discrimination.

The tribunal heard in March (07) how Styler created an "climate of fear" over her staff.

Martin claimed she was forced to work 14 hour days while pregnant and Styler was not sympathetic when she experienced sickness early in her pregnancy.


Wow...that's so mean! I hope she sues and gets a lot of money!

i guess he didn't give the chef a taste of his 'tantric' skills either. that may have defused the situation!
