Oh dear it seems more drama has now surrounded John Galliano – if that is possible!

Stehane Zerbib, Galliano’s lawyer, was rumoured to have quit last week, but now a spokesperson for the designer has claimed the designer actually fired Zerbib a few weeks ago.

Galliano will face charges of making racist insults in public later this month. Christian Dior parted ways with the designer following the incident in March, after he had been with the label for 15 years. The pre-trial hearing will begin in Paris next week.
