Actress Cameron Diaz accepted "substantial" libel damages over British Sun newspaper, which published an article in May this year, about Diaz cheating Justin Timberlake with a married man.

The News Group Newspapers, publishers of The Sun, sued by Diaz, agreed today to a "prominent" apology for the false informations published in May 2005 and to pay the actress's legal costs, Simon Smith, Diaz's lawyer, said in a statement today at the High Court in London

Smith told to Mr Justice Eady in court, that the article reported that "Justin Timberlake's bride-to-be Cameron Diaz has been caught snogging a married man". "It was explained to the reader that he was a married man, married to a high school teacher and that he was also the father of a one-year-old daughter," Smith added.

The man was identified as Shane Nickerson, a colleague of the star`s on her MTV show Trippin`, which he produces for her.

The Sun has admitted that "any suggestion of a romantic involvement is entirely untrue and without any substance whatsoever".

And News Group Newspapers had agreed to pay the actress "substantial, undisclosed damages and to reimburse in full the legal costs incurred by her in pursuing this matter".
