Culture Club founding member Jon Moss will be paid £1.75 million by his former bandmates after a High Court battle over the group’s profits was resolved a week before trial.
The drummer, 65, had previously brought legal action against the band’s lead singer Boy George, guitarist Roy Hay and bassist Michael Craig, after allegedly being 'expelled' by their manager in September 2018 after 37 years playing together.
A six-day trial due to start next week was set to determine the value of the Culture Club name, the profits made by the band since Mr Moss’s alleged expulsion, and the amount he might be entitled to receive.
