Duran Duran singer Simon Le Bon caught in a row with Treasury civil servant neighbour over the construction of a 50ft swimming pool at The Wild Boys singer's £5million London mansion


Save a prayer for Simon Le Bon, lead vocalist of 1980s pop band Duran Duran, as he won't be daydreaming about past glories for a while.

For I can reveal that The Wild Boys singer and his wife, evergreen model Yasmin Le Bon, have been rudely yanked into the New Year by a blistering attack in which they are accused of everything from high-handedness to outright deceit. As if that weren't enough, the man who's compiled the excoriating charge-sheet is an up-and-coming Treasury mandarin, Harry Dorrance-King, who lives in a low-rise block just yards from the Le Bons' £5million, ten-bedroom mansion in Putney, south-west London. The couple, who secured permission three years ago to extend their house by a third, are now seeking the green light to erect an additional outside building, complete with changing rooms, next to the 50ft swimming pool they're currently installing in their walled garden.
