The Italian property developer was arrested in March for trying to pay a USD250,000 bill to John Morrongiello with a bad cheque but has now reimbursed the amount. He has escaped prosecution because Morrongiello no longer wants to pursue the matter.

This is not the first time Follieri has faced legal problems.

Last year, he was sued for USD55 million for allegedly using money from his company to spend on himself and the Devil Wears Prada star.

Last month, he paid out USD1.3 million to his former investment partner, billionaire Ron Burkle, to settle the claims. He was also recently ordered by a Washington court to pay a public relations firm USD250,000 for work done on his behalf.

Hathaway, 25, has been dating Follieri, 29, for four years and says she can’t imagine life without him.

She said: “I love Raffaello with everything, and I don’t know how I could ever be with anyone else, ever.
