Disdain or disrespect (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

contempt

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'disdain' is the first definition.
(I know that disdain can be written as contempt)

'disrespect' is the second definition.
(I know that disrespect can be written as contempt)

(Other definitions for contempt that I've seen before include "Beneath this is despicable" , "Undisguised disrespect" , "The feeling of despising someone" , "Complete lack of respect, as sometimes of court" , "Scornful feeling" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
