VBeckhamD092608_010_X17.jpg A former nanny apologized to David Beckham and his wife Victoria in a London Court on Monday for violating a confidentiality agreement signed while she was employed by the couple.

Abbie Gibson was sued by the Beckhams after she gave an interview to a British newspaper. The suit was dismissed following the apology.

The Beckhams had previously sued the newspaper that published the interview with the former nanny. The paper apologized and paid libel damages to the soccer star and his wife.

Don't mess with the Beckhams...they will certainly do whatever it takes to protect their public image!
