Brittany Higgins says she will have to sell her French home to pay for her million-dollar defence in a defamation case brought by Senator Linda Reynolds. Ahead of the trial starting in Perth next month, Higgins said she will be “forced to sell her home in order to defend herself again” despite securing a $2.4 million compensation payout after she claimed damages over the alleged rape of her by Bruce Lehrmann in 2019.

“The price of speaking out about sexual assault remains unspeakably high. Brittany is now forced to sell her home in order to defend herself again.” The statement comes after Senator Reynolds won the right to access the secret details of Higgins’ multimillion-dollar trust fund last week — opening the way for her to potentially have the trust set aside and claim the funds.
