In December, nurse Sandie Peggie won a claim for harassment in her tribunal against the health board, but other allegations of discrimination were dismissed.
The nurse had objected to sharing a changing room with Dr Upton and was placed on special leave following a disagreement between the two at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy on Christmas Eve 2023.

Sandie Peggie wins employment tribunal against NHS Fife – but not Dr Upton
Ms Peggie had lodged a claim against NHS Fife and Dr Upton, citing the Equality Act 2010, including sexual harassment, harassment related to a protected belief, indirect discrimination, and victimisation.
The claims against Dr Upton were rejected by the employment tribunal.
The Scottish Sun On Sunday reported Dr Upton, 30, has left NHS Fife.
A spokesperson for the health board said: “NHS Fife can confirm that Dr Beth Upton left the organisation at the end of 2025.
“As this is a personal employment matter, we will be making no further comment.”
Ms Peggie has said she will continue her legal fight and will not be giving up “any time soon” after her partial win in the employment tribunal.
Her supporters have also hit out at the fact the tribunal issued corrections to its original 312-page ruling in Ms Peggie’s case.
Author JK Rowling said the correction was “absolutely scandalous behaviour”.
