Robert De Niro and ex-employee Graham Chase Robinson are involved in a legal battle after the actor sued her for $6 million
The Oscar winner filed new documents alleging Graham Chase Robinson sent him an email in August 2019 claiming she would divulge private information about the actor.
According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, the email “contained veiled threats that if Robinson’s demands were not met, she would publicly disclose information of a personal nature regarding De Niro.” De Niro says in the documents the email came just days before his company, Canal Productions, first sued Robinson for allegedly abusing her position to inappropriately use “her employer’s fund for her personal gain.” The actorDe Niro also claims Robinson sent another email later in August, in which she threatened to write a memoir about the actor if her undisclosed demands weren’t met.
Robinson was first hired by De Niro in 2008 and was later promoted to Vice President of Production & Finance. She quit abruptly in April of last year, with De Niro’s Canal Productions suing her months later for alleged misuse of company funds and workplace misconduct, including binge-watching Netflix for hours at a time.
