Victoria’s Secret’s board rejects an attempt by Australian retail billionaire Brett Blundy to gain control of the company’s board, according to reports citing coverage from The Age, Brisbane Times and the Sydney Morning Herald. The outlets describe Blundy as seeking influence over the iconic lingerie retailer and characterize the outcome as effectively ending or dealing a “fatal” blow to his effort. While the articles differ only in wording, they consistently frame the decision as a direct refusal by the board and as a poor result for Blundy’s campaign. The reports do not indicate any agreement or transfer of board control following the bid. They also present Blundy as a “reclusive” figure, and describe his bid as being met with a disastrous response. Overall, the accounts agree that the board does not accede to Blundy’s request and that the move fails to achieve the control he sought.
