LONDON - Teri Hatcher is accepting a libel payment from a British tabloid that claimed she neglected her daughter while having sex with men in a van outside her home.

Hatcher's attorney says The Daily Sport has agreed to pay "very substantial damages" and her legal bills. The paper will also have to print a front-page apology. It promised never to repeat the claim again.

An attorney representing the tabloid says it admitted the article was a lie.
