That won't help her career I wouldn't have thought.

oh dear

it'll probably blow over. alexandra burke still did well after her mum was investigated for benefit fraud

Woah! Did not see that coming at all. The media are already hounding her down. I can see this becoming another Alex Burke or Janet Devlin thing where the media starts spewing out as much as nonsense as they can and make the public turn against them. They're doing that to James Arthur already to be honest - unacceptable really.

That's a shame for her. On top of all that other stress just from the arrest itself, she now has to deal with people gossiping about it as well. I know it was sometimes met with a bit of annoyance/'that again' when her age was brought up by the judges, but it must be especially tough for a seventeen year old to go through.

whats money laundering??

that`s true and her brother was arrested for an alleged racist attack.

Handling money that has come from a dodgy source, usually criminal activity or fraud.
