The Celebrity Truth

Emergency documents filed on Friday (January 9)in the Los Angeles Superior Court, show the divorce between ‘Gossip Girl’ star Kelly Rutherford and her husband David Giersch has turned nasty.

The actress, who filed for divorce earlier this month, is attempting to stop her ex-husband from leaving the US with their 2-year-old son Hermes saying, “I feel there is some risk that he will leave the country with Hermes and I will not know where they are.”

Giersch shot back a response blaming their split on her job saying, “I have been extremely concerned about our son living in a hotel and a New York lifestyle, and this has been one of the main reasons, if not the reason for the ending of (Rutherford’s) and my marriage.”

The pair also claim each other have a bad temper, with accusations that Giersch would leave without telling her where he was going, and he claims she “has tried to hit me with an open fist when she’s had an angry outburst.  On July 6, she threw a laptop computer at me while we were in Hamburg. She smashed the computer on the table and it broke.”

The judge presiding over the case denied Rutherford’s request, setting down January 21 to discuss the matter further.
