Elizabeth Hurley’s boyfriend Arun Nayar, is planning to get divorced from his Italian spouse. The lawyer claims that Nayar’s wife treated him cruelly. At least that will be the official ground for divorce. Nayar is saying that Valentine Pedroni was “continuously torturing him mentally by making wild allegations and harassing him” during their life together.
"He (Nayar) has said in his petition that my client Valentina was cruel to him," Valentina's lawyer Mrinalini Deshmukh told AFP. “That is the ground on which he is seeking divorce from my client. I cannot reveal more than this." Valentina’s lawyer said the hearing will be held in Bombay's Bandra family court on May 5.
The Indian textile magnate married the blonde part-time model in 1997 in Bombay and then in Milan under Italian Law, but soon their marriage was in trouble.
Nayar and British model and actress Hurley have been going out for almost three years now. They often appeared together on various glam parties and fund raising events in Britain and the US.
39-year-old Hurley, who has a three-year-old son from movie producer Steve Bing, is currently learning Hindi. The couple is reportedly planning to wed once the divorce goes through.
