Actor Rob Lowe's Friends Stand Behind Him During Legal Woes

Actor Rob Lowe's friends are standing behind him as the star faces legal battles from his former nannies. Lowe is currently starring on the drama "Brothers and Sisters."

"Brothers and Sisters" co-star Dave Annable told People.com Monday night at the Hornitos Cinco de Mayo party in Los Angeles, "We love him to death. We support him." Annable also said that Lowe was doing great and he didn't bring his personal problems to work.

Lowe, 44, was accused of sexual harassment last month by former nanny Jessica Gibson. His wife, Sheryl, has also been accused of harassment by a second ex-nanny, Laura Boyce. The Lowes deny the claims.

Lowe has said Gibson threatened to sue unless he gave her $1.5 million. "It is an attempt to damage and humiliate not only my wife and me, but our two young sons as well," he wrote on the Huffington Post blog.
