Bra tycoon Baroness Mone has paid £50,000 to settle a lawsuit after she called a banker a “waste of a white man’s skin”. Richard Lynton-Jones, who is of Indian heritage, sued the Ultimo founder and Tory peer over the comment in a WhatsApp message.
He was a guest on a superyacht which accidentally struck her husband Doug Barrowman’s luxury yacht off the French Riviera. The 2019 crash resulted in the death of deckhand Jake Feldwhere, 29.
Glaswegian Mone, 50, appointed to the House of Lords by David Cameron in 2015, also described Lynton-Jones’s fiancee as a “mental loony” and “nut case bird”.
