Thursday, 26 June 2008
Anne Hathaway’s ex has been rushed to hospital following his appearance in court on money laundering and fraud charges.
Raffaello Follieri was taken ill with a severe sinus infection during the hearing in New York yesterday.
‘He had an episode in the courtroom which lead to him being transported to a nearby hospital for evaluation,’ his rep Melanie A Bonvicino says.
‘I do not have the specifics on what type of treatment at this time but [it's] for a severe sinus infection.’
The Italian businessman was arrested in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
He faces 6 counts of wire fraud, 5 counts of money laundering and 1 count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
Raffaello and Anne, 25, split last week after 4 years.
