Personal life

Rutherford married Venezuelanbanker Carlos Tarajano in June [11][12] Rutherford filed for divorce in January , after six months of marriage.[11] The wedding was featured shortly thereafter in the February issue of InStyle magazine.[11]

Rutherford married her second husband, German businessman Daniel Giersch, in August [13] She gave birth to their first child, son Hermés Gustaf Daniel Giersch, in October [14]

While pregnant with their second child, Rutherford filed for divorce from Giersch on December 30, [13] Rutherford and Giersch subsequently became involved in a child custody dispute over their son and their unborn child.[15] Rutherford gave birth to their second child, daughter Helena, in June

In August , Rutherford and Giersch reached a temporary settlement of joint physical custody, in effect until April [16] Rutherford also obtained a temporary restraining order against him the following month.[17]

Giersch's U.S.

visa was revoked in April ,[18] after Rutherford's lawyer informed the State Department about issues pertaining to Giersch's businesses, which led the department to conclude that it had sufficient evidence to deport him.[18]

It has been reported that the allegations involved fraud[18] or an involvement in drugs and weapons dealing in South America, considered terrorism under the PATRIOT Act.[19] Giersch consequently was unable to enter the United States and took up residence in France and Monaco.[18] In May , Rutherford and Giersch's children went to France to spend the summer with their father.[20] Rutherford asked the court to grant her sole custody so that she could keep the children primarily in the United States following their visit to France, as the existing joint custody agreement required her to travel frequently to enable Giersch to spend time with the children.[20]

Though Rutherford opposed the decision and requested a stay of proceedings while she appealed, her request was denied and it was ruled that, in two years, his eligibility to enter the United States and the consequent well-being of the children will be reassessed.[18][19][20]

Rutherford then filed a case in New York but on July 27, , the New York court ruled it also did not have jurisdiction.[25][26]

In December , the Monaco courts reconfirmed that full custody remained with the children's father, with Rutherford granted extensive visitation rights in France and Monaco as well as shared input regarding "health, schooling, religious education, and any change of residence".[27]
