An aristocrat who sacked the manageress of his holiday home in France while she was pregnant has been forced to pay her compensation.
The Earl of Harrington , whose son-in-law is Viscount Linley, fired Hollie Harker soon after she and her husband Jon learnt they were expecting their first child. The couple said they had been working at the earl's eight-bedroom French property Chateau de Combecave, in Touffailles near Toulouse, for eight months when they were told to leave 'forthwith' without explanation. Mrs Harker (pictured left, with her son Charlie) now lives in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. The earl (right, with his wife) claimed he decided to dismiss the couple after warning them of shortcomings in their work.
