NANNY SNAPS BACK AT MADGE

Madonna

Wednesday April 15,2009

By Kathryn Spencer

WHILE Madonna’s former nanny Angela Jacobsen is keen to put paid to rumours of a rift she certainly isn’t shy about revealing the frustrating side of life with the superstar.

The 29-year-old – speaking out in her native Australia after losing her job caring for Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s adopted three-year-old son David Banda last month – reports that she and other staff were banned from keeping snaps with him and her other children Rocco, eight, and Lourdes, 12.

“We weren’t allowed to take any photographs of the family,” she says. “We were given ‘nanny cameras’ so we could take photos of the children during their activities but when we got home we had to hand them in.

“The photographs were taken off and stored on Madonna’s hard drive.”

Angela, who found out she had lost her job while on holiday in Thailand, insists she had told Madonna she was planning to leave at some point this year. She maintains that she was given the boot because she could not teach French to David.

She also concedes it’s unlikely she will ever see the child she helped to raise for nearly two years again. “I don’t think it would be allowed,” she tells the Aussie magazine New Idea.
