Instead of writing an article about her (I donât quite fancy getting sued or attacked by her defense squad that consists ofâŚ. herself lmao), I decided to make a little compilation post with sources for all of you who might consider looking into it a bit more:
Here we have her twitter account, her bio states sheâs â@SYCOâs Global Head of Mediaâ and connected to âOne Directionâ.
This is her linkedin in which her occupations are described as: âGlobal Head of Media for Syco Entertainment & Simon Cowellâ, â International Media & Brand Strategyâ, âCrisis Managementâ (âproviding contacts and mental health clinicians/providers to oversee the boys mental well being and would step in during times of severe trauma or emergency")  and others.
This article informs of her former involvement with prison psychology (âThomson left the PR bubble in 2005 when she joined the Nottingham Probation Service, working with community service groups, before moving to Garth Prison in Lancashire to undertake psychological assessments of prisoners.â). Â
She used to be Max Cliffordâs PA, he apparently has nothing but positive things to say about her.
2007: International head of media, Syco TV/Syco Music, Sony Entertainment
2006: Consultant, Max Clifford Associates
2005: Psychological assistant, HMP Garth
2005: Community services supervisor, Nottinghamshire Probation Service
2004: Account director, Taylor Herring Communications
2000: PA to Max Clifford and then account director, Max Clifford Associates
A celebrity publicist (and Ann-Marie Thomsonâs former boss and mentor) who was given a prison sentence for sexually abusing four teenagers.
He has a history of closeting his clients, an example here.
This is Ann-Marie Thomsonâs husbandâs twitter account which provides the info that he works for The Sun.Â
The Hollywood Reporterâs article that states that â Syco Entertainmentâs Ann-Marie Thompson weds The Sunâs U.S. editor Peter Samsonâ (April 2013).
Pete gets EXCLUSIVES such as Louisâs alleged fatherhood, additional to Haylor stories back in the day.Â
Ann-Marie Thomson - who is Simon Cowellâs right hand woman and started working for Syco in 2007 - learned what she knows from convicted sexual predator and homophobe Max Clifford, and is married to The Sunâs US Editor Pete Samson.Â
She, although partly in charge of One Directionâs brand and PR, also has power over the bandâs crisis management and therefore over which psychologists they get access to.
To absolutely nobodyâs surprise, her husband gets juicy One Direction Exclusives.Â
One could, if they read the clues correctly, assume that there is a Conflict of Interest, seeing how psychological care and public relations should be separate from one another, and definitely not handled by the same person who sells stories to their husbandâs tabloid and orchestrates stunts that could very well affect the boysâ mental well-being.
If thereâs anything Iâve missed, do let me know with a message, ask or add something (constructive) to the post!
