Anne Hathaway’s boyfriend squeaks away from being charged for bad check


29 year-old Actress Anne Hathaway’s boyfriend, Italian cad Raffaello Follieri, won’t be charged for writing a $250,000 bad check in March. The guy he wrote the check to has dropped the charges after he eventually got paid by Follieri.

Last year Follieri was sued for $55 million by billionaire Ron Burkle for spending company money from a charity he set up with Hathaway. Burkle accussed Follieri of “wilfully and systematically misappropriating” around $1.5 million to keep Hathway in a lavish lifestyle that included private jets, a penthouse apartment, and five star restaurants and hotel stays.

Follieri settled that lawsuit last month for around $1.3 million.

He may be in the clear, but this probably won’t be the last time this guy is shady with money. Bang! Showbiz notes that he’s been dating 25 year-old Hathaway for four years and that she said “I love Raffaello with everything, and I don’t know how I could ever be with anyone else, ever.” Open your eyes, girl. You’re a beautiful successful actress and deserve an honest devoted man. Follieri looks charming like a snake while it circles its prey.

    she’s dating Zach Braff/Jon Lovitz?

    He looks like the love child of Rocco DiSpirito and Zach Braff. This isn’t going to end well. She’s going to lose all of her money if she stays with that loser.

    When I skimmed the page I thought it WAS Braff at first glance…

    Wait a sec, I thought nerd-boy was a multi-millionaire ? He won’t be at this rate.

    her eyes look dead.

    The only money this guy spends is other peoples, wonder if Anne bailed him out to save him going to jail. If she has been paying for him he will bleed her dry and then move on to his next victim,the only thing this guy loves is money, photos of the couple taken when he is not aware they are being taken suggest he has little respect or affection for her. Never trust a guy who allways keeps his hands in his pockets.
