Brooks, Coulson Affair
October 31, 2013 by staff
Brooks, Coulson Affair, Former News of the World editors Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson were having an affair for at least six years from the late 1990s, the phone-hacking trial has heard.
Prosecutor Andrew Edis QC said he was disclosing the affair because it showed how much the pair trusted each other.
“What Mr Coulson knew, Mrs Brooks knew too. What Mrs Brooks knew, Mr Coulson knew too,” he said. “That’s the point.”
Mrs Brooks and Mr Coulson deny charges including conspiracy to phone hack.
Jurors heard their affair, which began around 1998, was discovered by police through a letter saved on a computer belonging to Mrs Brooks.
‘I love you’
The letter was written by Mrs Brooks in February 2004, when Mr Coulson was trying to end the affair, Mr Edis said.
