shortly after their ski collision in which he boasted it would make him “famous” has gone missing, the court has heard. The Hollywood star and CEO of lifestyle brand Goop is being sued by Terry Sanderson, 76, a retired optometrist, who claims she ploughed into him on the slopes of Flagstaff Mountain at the Deer Valley Resort in 2016. Mr Sanderson is hoping for $300,000 (£250,000) in damages after alleging Paltrow crashed into him and caused severe and long-lasting brain injuries.
It emerged on day four of the eight-day trial in Utah on Friday that hours after he was released from hospital, Mr Sanderson messaged friends and family with the subject line "I’m famous…at what cost" with a link to what is believed to be GoPro video footage. However, by the time the communications were made available to Paltrow’s legal team the link was dead and it is not known what it contained. When challenged by Paltrow's lawyer over what they claim to be "the most important piece of evidence", Mr Sanderson's daughter Polly Sanderson-Grasham - a recipient of the email - claimed to not remember what that link was.
"I had a ski accident three weeks prior to my dad,” she told jurors, explaining her lack of memory. "I was not sleeping well. I also had a four and an eight-year-old to take care of, so my memory of that period is very foggy.
"The footage has not been found or included as evidence in the trial, however the actor's attorneys suggested it could have been crucial to establishing blame in the case. Paltrow has previously called the lawsuit an attempt to exploit her fame and celebrity. The proceedings thus far have touched on themes ranging from skier’s etiquette to the power - and burden - of celebrity.
