Country Star's Nanny Tango Ends With $$$ Flair
ABC/Adam Larkey
She already completed a stint on Dancing With the Stars. Now country singer Sara Evans has finished dancing with a former nanny.
The crooner began her tango with Alison Clinton Lee amidst her nasty divorce from Republican congressional candidate Craig Schelske, which concluded in 2007. Among the mudslinging, Evans accused Lee of having a waltz of her own with Schelske.
Lee and her husband, Chris Lee, filed a defamation suit in April 2007, seeking a whopping $3 million.
Alas, the former nanny isn't quite that rich, but she still fared pretty well...
E! News has learned exclusively that the caregiver and her hubby scored more than $500,000 in the settlement.
Evans dramatically resigned from the third season of Dancing With The Stars after the lurid nature of her allegations against her husband and nanny were revealed. Likewise, Schelske abandoned his congressional race.
After the divorce, Evans remarried but her ex-husband never gave up hope of clearing his name. Schelske filed a lawsuit against Evans' divorce attorneys for slandering and libeling him with the allegations of adultery. That suit is still pending.
Evans' manager Renne Behrman declined to comment.
