She’s devastated her ex’s father has been accused of child abuse.
She’s normally never without a smile, but there was no hiding the pain on Delta Goodrem’s face last week as friends delivered the news that the father of her ex-boyfriend Mark Philippoussis had been arrested over child sexual abuse claims.
As the accusations sent shockwaves across the world, Delta was left reeling in horror as details of the charges against Nikolaos “Nick” Philippoussis slowly started to emerge.
Last week the 68-year-old San Diego-based tennis coach and father of former tennis champ Mark was arrested at his home. He reportedly offered no resistance as police to k him away to investigate claims of child molest d while the investigation is still ongoing, it is believed Nick is facing 14 counts of sex offences against minors, and his two alleged victims are aged under 14 and former tennis students he used to coach.
