The employers of the British scientist, who is the author of a best-selling about being a prostitute, supported her after she revealed herself as “Belle de Jour”.
Dr. Brooke Magnanti, working for the Bristol Initiative for Research of Child Health, revealed her hidden identity at the weekend to The Sunday Times newspaper, as she feared the an ex-boyfriend is ready to disclose the secret.
Magnanti’s weblog of her activities in 2003-2004 were turned into a best-selling book, “The Intimate Adventure of a London Call Girl” that later was adapted into a successful 16-episode television series.
Her employer’s, the University of Bristol, spokesman declared AFP that “She’s a researcher. She’s just a member of staff here and what happened in the past doesn’t really bear relevance to what she’s doing now.”
Magnanti went to London seeking a job while writing the thesis for her doctorate, but her economies were quickly vanishing. She signed up with an agency and started having sex for $500.
