Rob Lowe is taking preemptive action against a former family babysitter who he claims is demanding $1.5 million from the actor and his wife by the end of the week "or she will accuse us both of a vicious laundry list of false terribles."Lowe does not name the woman in question or detail her claims but says his wife "tried to mentor this young woman" and help her through some personal issues.
"It is an attempt to damage and humiliate not only my wife and me, but our two young sons as well," Lowe, 44, writes on The Huffington Post.
"My family is devastated at this betrayal; this woman worked in our home and traveled with us off and on for seven years, without complaint," he adds.
He adds, "No one intimidates my family. My wife and I have many former and long term employees, all of whom know this woman, who can and will refute any claims of anything inappropriate in our home, or anywhere else. We will defend ourselves with vigor and without fear."
He then posts two text messages reportedly from the woman in question after she quit her job.
Lowe currently stars on ABC's Brothers and Sisters. He and wife Sheryl Berkoff have two children, Edward Matthew, 14, and John Owen, 13.
