Davison 'had no choice but to sue' Ryanair

Lawyers for Ryanair have said Rosanna Davison's libel action against the airline is "a storm in a teacup" while the model's legal team has said she "had no choice but to sue".

The former Miss World is suing over a press release which criticised the model's comments on the lack of Irish women in the airline's 2009 charity calendar as having "bordered on racism".
