I'm lostcomepletely on this one, what did she do? and what does it have to do with the mess up that John lesslie has become?
you see I avoid the news whilst its in the news and I ask later when its all died down. This way I can perform an objective opinion.

A man had sex with a woman.She says she didn't want to but he says she did. Another man decided that she did, so the first man was right.

she was sexually assaulted when she was a young presenterand she never told anyone. Then she wrote her autobiography, called it "HONEST" and reasonably enough included the incident, without at any point saying who it was who attacked her - as many years later as it was, there would have been no possibility of making a case stick against them under our legal system.
However, the press got speculating and Matthew Wright let slip on telly that most people thought it was John Leslie. An unknown woman then went to the police claiming JL had attacked her, too. Recently this woman withdrew her evidence after it was revealed that she'd gone to the papers before the police, so JL is now cleared of any attacks.
At no point did Ulrika comment on whether it was JL who attacked her.

thing isshe can't say it was him because there's no way it would stand up in court, so it's technically libel. but if she says it wasn't him...
well, the book's called "honest" let's put it that way.

she may well have told the policewhether it was/wasn't him as part of their investigations. There's no reason why she should tell the press too, as it would just lead to more 'who is it then?' reports, which were rather distasteful in the first place.
(edit: and he was being investigated for the other claims who came forward, so she couldn't have stopped it anyway)

And that would be........have no talent and only be famous for being 'Ulrika' whilst all the time making notes and then writing a book about an otherwise boring life - spicing it up by (maybe) naming people - and whoring herself to the kind of people who think that 'Hello' and 'OK' are journalism?

if it was him them she's not saying because any case in court would be her word against hisand you'd never get any sort of conviction with the media circus it has been. if it wasn't she's either being extremely devious and cruel, or she'd have to say who it was, or she's making it up.
whatever happened he'd end up suing the pants off here and winning. i can't comment on the ethics of the situation.
