The wife of a wealthy British banker who lives in Manhattan is being sued by her African-American nanny after sending her a racist text and then firing her through sheer embarrassment.
Mother-of-two, Lynsey Plasco-Flaxman, allegedly sent a message to her spouse, Joel Plasco, upon realizing the woman was black.
'NOOOOOOOOOOO ANOTHER BLACK PERSON,' the text is alleged to have read, according to the lawsuit.
But instead of reaching her husband, the text was instead sent to her new nanny, Giselle Maurice. who had just started working for her family on first day the job.

In an email to DailyMail.com, Plasco revealed that he had not yet been served with any claim of any kind.
'As youd expect me to say, there are two sides to every story,' he said.
'My wife had sent her something that she didn't mean to say. She's not a racist. We're not racist people,' Joel Plasco, co-chairman of the Dalmore Group investment bank, told The Post.
'But would you put your children in the hands of someone you've been rude to, even if it was by mistake? Your newborn baby? Come on!'

Just sayin' ... it's quite possible there is in fact 'another side to the story' ... but then again, maybe not.

Say it was a Sterling Silver Dinner Fork, or the like?
I mean, who could really blame 'em on accounta bein' skittish then?

(9,696 posts)She would have to have had the nannys phone number in her phone, yet this sounds like she was suprised, like maybe an agency sent the nanny and she expected a white person?
This one is a head scratcher.
