Anne Hathaway receiving letters from jailed ex-fiance Raffaello Follieri
Anne Hathaway has reportedly been receiving letters from her jailed ex-fiance Raffaello Follieri, begging the actress to wait for him so they can reunite when he is released from prison, Britain’s Sunday Express reports.
Raffaello Follieri was sentenced to four-and-a-half years behind bars in Dec 2008 after pleading guilty to 14 counts of wire fraud, conspiracy and money laundering.
Hathaway dumped Follieri in June 2008, shortly before he was arrested by federal authorities and admitted to scamming more than $3.6 million from investment & real estate firms.
The star has since embarked on a relationship with actor Adam Shulman, but Follieri has been finding it hard to move on, and regularly writes to Hathaway begging for a second chance.
“Anne fears anything she says to him will lead to a fresh avalanche of mail. The letters are not only torturing Anne, they are putting pressure on her new relationship,” a source says.
