Brooks quickly countersued the makeup artist for extortion and defamation, saying that she had threatened to go public with her story if he didn’t pay her millions of dollars.
Yet though the 62-year-old has continued to vehemently deny the claims leveled against him, sources close to the award-winning singer are said to have told RadarOnline that he is struggling.
“He’s totally convinced he’ll get through this mess, but it’s caused him undue stress,” one insider allegedly said.
“He’s in legal meetings and the phone is going off 24/7. He’s having to fend off questions from friends and loved ones.”
Once Brooks and Roe arrived at their hotel room, Roe’s suit alleges that the Friends in Low Places hitmaker “appeared in the doorway to the bedroom, completely naked.” Roe’s complaint states she felt “trapped in the room alone with Brooks.”
