Wednesday, The Sun expressed its regrets for a news story that was published within its pages. The story stated that the 41 year-old American actress was having sexual relations in a van parked outside of her home.
The newspaper printed an apology to Hatcher, saying that the story was, "totally incorrect". Furthermore, the paper was sorry, "for the embarrassment caused," by the story.
An undisclosed sum of money was also paid to the star as a result of the case being heard in the courts.
Hatcher is still suing another tabloid, The Daily Sport, for printing the same story.
