Gossip Girl’s Kelly Rutherford Shares Update After Custody Battle


‘Gossip Girl’s’ Taylor Momsen Goes Topless On Red Carpet, Shows Off Toned Abs

Kelly Rutherford has traded Manhattan for the Mediterranean.

Nearly a decade after the Gossip Girl alum’s bitter custody battle with ex-husband Daniel Giersch—which led her to move to Monaco to be near their son Hermés, 17, and daughter Helena, 15—the actress offered a glimpse inside her “quite peaceful” life abroad.

“It’s the opposite of what everyone thinks it is, for me at least,” Rutherford told Travel + Leisure magazine in an interview published Sept. 30. “It’s a place you can come and really just be quiet.” 

“In the wintertime, it’s very quiet, very private and very peaceful,” she added. “It’s like the Hamptons in the summer versus the Hamptons in the winter.” 

And that tranquil life also includes a simple day-to-day routine.

“I just walk the dogs, hang out with the kids and run errands,” the 55-year-old said. “If there’s a gallery opening or something like that, I’ll go just to see. But it’s mostly just quiet time here for me.”
