OldNick Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 i notice she is doing a new show. Did she not take in the region of £5m damages from the NHS as the infection she received had finished her career? If true she should pay the money back, if not all a large chunk of it.

Girl goes to a plastic surgon to make her look beter, Plastic surgon makes a mess of the job, girl gets compensation, simples. Now we could enter the realms of was the surgery necassary etc. but that is a different set of ethics. I cant see how your premiums will be affected unless you are also a dodgy plastic surgon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insurance companies lift their premiums to cover payouts.We end up footing the bill by increased premiums. Not that i need plastic surgery of course as im drop dead gorgeous but others....

Clearly, if the procedure didn't work and it caused her damage/losses and the reason for the procedure not working was the negligence of the surgeon and/or clinic who carried it out then she is quite right to bring a claim. She would have been awarded whatever was deemed correct at the time. And further, the people who you insure your car with are not the same people who provide indemnity insurance to medical professionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could say the same of a mechanic who messes up your car, or a plumbers who floods your house. It did harm her career, she was well worth a wipe when she was in men behaving badly, after that op cant say she had the same effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpsaint Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 Think a few people have their wires crossed here.Yes she had a botched plastic surgery op that made her look like a fish,but the claim for damages wasn't to do with that,it was over a virus she picked up from a dirty hospital which she successfully won damages from the NHS over. Nick is right,her case was that she would never be able to return to TV roles,which appears to be false,so she should pay some back,or to charity at least.

INFLUENCED.COM Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 so she should pay some back,or to charity at least. Which one do you propose, Battered wives ? afterall is that not why she was in hospital in the first place ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's you that's missing the point.... the details of who botched what are irelevant. Let's just cut to the chase: What effect will this have on NickH's insurance premiums?

I believe the NHS carries negligence insurance. If you or I claimed on insurance and then 'found' our stolen goods, we'd have to repay the insurance company. I think the imperative for her to repay our NHS is greater actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadoldgit Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 She seemed happy enough to flash her trout pout all over the papers when shehad it done. I guess it was only when people made fun of hr that she actually realised how awful it looked! I can understand why some people want surgery to improve their looks, but she wasn't unattractive was she? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint_stevo Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 She went to hospital because she cracked a rib while having sex with Lee Chapman.......my kinda gal Apparently the £5m represents lost earnings since her illness to now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW5 SAINT Posted 13 October, 2009 Share Posted 13 October, 2009 I think the compensation was because she contracted MRSA whilst being treated for said broken rib in NHS hospital, so hence the loss of earnings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had lost a lot of her earning potential after she grew those lips.Her work had dried up. I got the impression she claimed she would never be ale to work agian.Hence the large payout.
