Actor Rob Lowe has won a court victory that may help celebrities keep their dirty secrets.

Actor Rob Lowe has won a court victory that may help celebrities keep their dirty secrets.

The West Wing star is suing former nanny Laura Boyce for allegedly violating a confidentiality agreement she signed.

It came after the former member of staff apparently told media outlets a number of private things about Lowe and his wife Sheryl.

In a surprise decision, a judge in Los Angeles rejected Boyce’s claim that the confidentiality agreement was invalid – on the grounds it violated her freedom of speech rights.

The result may have a huge impact in the lives of Hollywood’s rich and famous, who essentially have been told confidentiality agreements work again.
