Glamorous Zimbabwean Nanny Fired 3 Days Into Working For ex-UK PM Boris Johnson

In a shocking turn of events, Theresa Dawes, a Zimbabwean nanny, finds herself at the centre of a storm after being abruptly fired just 3 days into her job with former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s family. 


In an exclusive interview, Theresa revealed the details of her tumultuous journey.

A Glass of Wine Leads to a Nightmare

Theresa Dawes, a 59-year-old nanny from Zimbabwe, was thrilled to join the Johnson family at their Oxfordshire mansion, Brightwell Manor, to help with their newborn, baby Frank Alfred Odysseus.

However, her excitement was short-lived when she was given only 15 minutes to pack her bags and leave after a single encounter that changed everything.

The Mirror reports that Theresa disclosed, “It’s been a complete nightmare.” Her firing occurred just 36 hours after she shared a glass of rosé with the ex-PM to celebrate baby Frank’s arrival.

Boris’s explanation? According to Theresa, he said, “Carrie was ‘hormonal… it’s out of my control’.”

Theresa is now contemplating legal action to claim the thousands of pounds she believes she is owed for her agreed three-month contract and severance pay. However, the Johnsons vehemently deny Theresa’s allegations.

Boris, who has been earning millions from speaking engagements since leaving office, maintains a £115,000 annual allowance as an ex-PM. Despite this, Theresa remains determined to seek justice.
Misunderstandings and Cold Shoulders

Theresa insists that nothing inappropriate occurred between her and Boris during their encounter. “I know he’s had three wives, however many kids. But I’m not interested; he’s not my type,” she clarified.

She suspects that the real reason behind her dismissal was Carrie’s mother, Josephine, witnessing her wine-sharing moment with Boris.

Theresa, who had travelled nearly 8,000 miles from Zimbabwe for the job, had previously mentioned a former employer’s celebration of Boris’s political woes.

Still, she believes that her dismissal stemmed from the wine incident.

A Mysterious Change in Behavior

The dramatic shift in Carrie’s behaviour was evident when she returned home the following afternoon.

Theresa described her as “extremely rude” and recalled her saying, “Where’s my mum” upon arrival. Carrie’s abrupt change of heart left Theresa bewildered.

Seeking Closure

Despite the disappointment and financial loss, Theresa simply wants to be paid what she is contractually owed so that everyone involved can move on.

The Johnson family’s spokesperson labelled Theresa’s account “totally untrue,” emphasizing that she had fabricated the story for financial gain.

In the midst of this tumultuous saga, one thing is clear: the glamorous Zimbabwean nanny’s short-lived job with the Johnsons has left a lasting impact and stirred controversy.
