Romance Report: Anne Hathaway's Jewels of Denial

The way they were: Raffaello and Anne at an event in Italy last year.

Anne Hathaway's reputation wasn't the only thing dinged by former boyfriend Raffaello Follieri's underhanded business dealings. Seems her jewelry box also took a hit. The Smoking Gun reports that the FBI recently "recovered" several "lavish" baubles bestowed upon the actress by her con artist ex, who is expected to spend at least five years in the pokey after pleading guilty this week to wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy. Among the items that Hathaway, who's not mentioned by name in court documents, purportedly handed over to the feds: two Rolex watches -- one gold, one silver; two gold rings, one with "clear stones," which may be FBI-speak for diamonds; a five-strand pearl necklace; a silver bracelet dotted with "clear stones"; and a silver chain with a cross and "blue and clear stones." Anne opens up in the October issue of W about her breakup with Follieri after four years of togetherness, explaining, "It's a situation where the rug was pulled out from under me all of a sudden. But just as suddenly, my friends threw another rug back under me." She then tearfully notes, "I've been shown such kindness. Not everyone gets that. A lot of people go through tough times alone."

I just read the Vanity Fair article about this db. She had to know something was up or perhaps not; he was so fucking shady.

I dunno JMK-we have seen people right on here blind as a bat to their partner.
About the jewelry-she probably wanted it out & away anyhow.

Yeah that's the thing; you would think she would know the tiniest something but then from what I read in the article he had a vague way of speaking about things so people just assumed things. How he referred to "the boat" which was just a yacht that had been rented; people assumed he owned it.

Bet all the stuff her gave her was fake.

If you find yourself in a position where you own two Rolex watches, it's time to think long and hard about your life. I'm just sayin'...

That's a pretty good list!

Boo fucking hoo. She knew something, I don't care what anyone says. He had a shady reputation for a LONG time.. when someones sniffing around your boyfriend, especially the Vatican and the feds, you notice. She seems smart, so I doubt she'd be so blind to notice something wasn't right with him.

I would have agreed with you prior to reading it, and I still do

I just hope that this whole experience hasn't soured him on romance. After all he's gonna be meeting alot of interesting new singles!

Rafello even has a fakey-sounding name-- loser!!!

I think she had to know something was up. I work with a girl who claims to have had no knowledge of her former fiance embezzeling hundreds of thousands of dollars from his employer. I say "Bullshit". She always went on and on about all the jewelry, trips, designer clothing, and new vehicles he bought her. He had a good paying job, but their spending was so ridiculously excessive that i always just assumed they were racking up credit card debt. As soon as his employer caught on, she dropped him like a hot potato, but kept all the shit. I say there is no way in a relationship that you cannot be aware of that kind of extra cash floating around. Especially when he didn't even seem to be trying to hide it.
