The wife of the millionaire British sacked her nanny to whom she had sent racist texts "after fearing revenge on children"

A rich mother twice sent a racist text to a nanny she had just used, before dismissing her saying that she felt "uncomfortable", a- she declared.

Giselle Maurice is suing her former employer, Lynsey Plasco-Flaxman, who she said accidentally sent her a message saying "NOOOOOOOOOOO, ANOTHER BLACK PERSON."

Mrs. Plasco-Flaxman thought that she was sending the message to her husband, the British banker Joel Pascoe, would have been sent, but as she was not receiving an answer, she will send it again.

Ms. Maurice testified that, after becoming aware of her mistake, Mrs. Newra Plasco-Flaxman returned her, paying her for a single day.

She told the New York Post:[I want] to show them, look, you do not do things like that.

"I know it's discrimination."

However, the family defended the move, claiming that she was not racist, but that she was no longer trusting Ms. Maurice to take care of her newborn baby.

Mr. Plasco told the New York Post: "But would you put your children in the hands of someone you were rude to, even if it was by mistake?"

Ms. Maurice is seeking compensation for the £ 48,000 salary she was supposed to earn before she was fired.

She claims that Mrs. Plasco-Flaxman said she was waiting for a Filipino nanny, her predecessor, also an African-American, having not been good at her job.

The nanny said that despite the racist blunder, she would not have acted differently towards the baby.

His former employers stated that he had never had a contract and that they should not therefore compensate Ms. Maurice.
