Nanny Claims Rob Lowe's Wife Sexual Harasser

Rob LoweA second nanny in the Rob Lowe case has filed a cross complaint, and this one is ugly.

Laura Boyce is not accusing Rob of sexual misdeeds, but she's throwing everything -- including the kitchen sink -- at his wife, Sheryl.

TMZ is privy to the complaint, which has been filed in L.A. County Superior Court, but not yet released. Among the allegations against Sheryl:

- Walking around naked, completely exposing herself to Boyce.

- Asking Boyce about the size of Boyce's boyfriend's penis.

- Asking questions about how she could have sex with Boyce's boyfriend, given his 7' height (he's a former NBA player).

- Using her forearm to gesture the size of Boyce's boyfriend's penis.

- Once saying "laughingly that her husband's (Rob) cockrings were broken," allegedly showing them to Boyce.

- Telling Boyce about her sex life with Rob.

- Talking about the size of her children's penises.

- After Boyce allegedly phoned to say she wasn't coming to work because she was sick, Sheryl allegedly screamed Boyce "got strep throat from sucking ni***r d**k. I mean black d**k."

There is no claim of unwanted touching or overture. There are also claims for wrongful termination, abuse of process, unpaid salary and labor code violations.

UPDATE: Larry Stein, the attorney for the Lowes, issued the following statement to TMZ: "Having struck out against Rob Lowe, Gloria Allred now seeks to drag his wife and children into the fray. 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, 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 claim against Rob."

46. Did Jessica Gibson work for the surgeon her sister Kelly Gibson works for since that surgeons sister in law is a host on extra extra. Who got this W/T Gloria Allred and if these low rent people conspired to extort money from anyone in exchange for not trashing Mr. Lowes reputation, a reputation that has now been so harmed, they should pay. Mr. Lowe should hire the best private investigators there are to look into every detail of these accusers lives and see who is behind all of this, unless of course the accusations are true but I am skeptical of anyone who would pose for a entertainment r/mag.

51. 2ff # 48 I think that just about sums it up. Go figure celebrities are just like us. Well, not me and you, but the general population deals with these kinds of things. If we all decided we could afford help for the doldrum chores we face everyday, we may have to ask ourselves is it worth the invasion of privacy? Some stars have a very tight lid on their employees: very secure contracts, like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have.

People do strange things. My gut feeling is the nannies are crossing the line on this one. From what I read, it seems to be a consensus. We all have our own individual quirks, attitudes. beliefs and hardships to deal with, and privacy is sacred. So my advice to the celebrities out there is Have an iron clad contract. Sure what happened sounds racy, but what percentage of the population is racy in it's thinking? Sex brings pleasure, talking about it, making jokes, it's a natural theraputic release in life that more people should try, more often. The after effects are very sedating.

It's really hard to understand the black white issue and the n word; why its so offensive, and how the US society created such a stagma around the word. We are all human and we are all racist. If someone gets hired for a job over you, a person's mind automatically finds a reason to dislike or criticize a person. Maybe you say they're better looking, have connections, follow the trend of the office, but for some reason the human mind finds a reason to discriminate.

I understand the importance of establishing rights. I hope by now we ( as in the general population) understand that we are all equal yet different in this world, and have respect for those differences. I understand the value of our human rights and I also acknowledge that a standard should be kept. Why it surrounds one single word, I'm not sure.

In Germany students at the University are still made to feel bad about the sins of Hitler. How many years is it going to take for every single one of us humans to recognize that is who we are is a big family of people just trying to enjoy this world and meet our basic needs, or rather in this case our base needs.

52. if this is a fact, then she needs to pay up and hire no one ever again. She needs to learn how to take care of her house, not someone else like a nanny, her husband has a very bad habit of doing other woman and young too, he hasn't changed, he's more of a sociopath now, till he ends up hurting someone to death. 1 out of 100 Americans are psychopaths, hello!

53. Why is Rob Lowe married to this women. She looks like some tough old broad. Maybe she does amazing things in bed, because she did not get where she is ( I'm straight, but Rob Lowe is one good looking guy) married to a famous, probably wealthy, handsome man by having a face only a mother would love. Maybe she has a killer body which she walks around naked all the time (allegedly). Either that or Rob has some weird sexual hangups or taste in women.

55. number 1 rob didn't know that the girl in the video was underaged. the girl lied about her age when they met. they still do they just use i really god FAKE.
number 2 if it happened why not quit after the first time it happened.
number 3 the children are probably embarrassed but not because if this because if they need to have nannies still come on you don't need a nanny after the age of 12 AND HAVING THE FEMALE TEACHERS CRUSHING OVER WHO THERE FATHER IS.
number 4 both a gold diggers because these days everybody is after money.
and the last one is not about the LOWES but about POLYGAMY and FLDS sry to insult you if you are one but that is disgusting. those people have more problems than the lowes if it is true. especially for those FLDS children not knowing who their actual father or mother Is and having to wear those HIDEOUS OUTFITS. OH BTW WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND IS CALLED KARMA. THE CASES WILL BE THROWN AWAY BY THE JUGDE AND THOSE GOLD DIGGING SKANKS ARE GOING TO GO AWAY AND WILL HAVE THE 15 SECONDS OF FAME BECAUSE THAT IS ALL THEY WANT. AFTER THIS CASE IS DONE WITH YOU WON'T HEAR OF THOSE GIRLS. IF THEY REALLY WANTED MORE MONEY THEY COULD HAVE GONE TO COLLEGE AND BEEN SMARTER ABOUT THERE CAREER CHOICES.

56. It’s ridiculous how gullible people are. The first nanny tried to get Rob to settle but he chose to fight her in court. The woman is a nut case and Gloria A is desperate and grasping at straws now. If this second nanny was so harassed and terrorized then why did she stay? She was fired and has a grudge. She’s in the same league as the paparazzi that stick their foot under the tire and then sue.

57. And i'm confused on this one statement: Ms. Allred filed a cross-complaint on behalf of Boyce, which contains false allegations, in an apprent attempt to divert the negative publicity which Allred's client, Gibson, has universally received.

Is Gloria Allred upset that another nanny has filed a complaint? Is the new complainant (Boyce) stealing her clients thunder?

If Gibson has already received universal negative publicity - then might I suggest Mz. Allread that your client not air her DIRTY LAUNDRY ON THE F'NG..... I N T E R N E T !!!!!!!

You know Gloria - ignorance does not equal a good defence!!!

59. Most working people wouldn't take personal stuff your employer confided to you and try to turn it into a personal cash cow. They're working in someone's home, which is by nature a much more personal and intimate setting than a professional office. I get the sense that Lowe's wife mistakenly felt close to the women, and obviously has a very candid style, (sex as humor) and I guess the smell of money for these two household helpers was too dang strong. Many employees are hampered by their own personal sense of resentment and jealousy at the seemingly random(to them) station of others. Lowe's wife will definitely now need to limit her intimate and candid jokes strictly to her contemporaries. On the flip side, the problem with treating employees in a strictly business way in a home environment is that they'll likely also resent THAT, interpret you as cold and then may steal you blind anyway. Lowe's wife may have actually liked these paid helpers and so mistakenly trusted them with her intimate personal musings, but misjudged the size of their resentment. Believe me, anyone who has dated a former NBA player has seen some stuff, and cannot ever convince me that they're offended by the above. Mrs. Lowe's talk wouldn't bother me, but I can see how it might bother some others, but then it's up to them to say so at the time to give the woman a chance to change her frank approach with them, or simply move on to another job elsewhere rather than trying to drum the Lowe's trust into their future retirement fund. Oooh, she said some stuff that shocked and offended me. Oh, get a life. Your house could have flooded, or you could be battling cancer. Why are people such wussies nowadays? You just move on; you don't try and take their stuff with you when you do it.
