Anne Hathaway's diaries have been confiscated by the FBI during a raid at her ex-boyfriend's Manhattan apartment, which the two shared until breaking up. The actress used to date Raffaello Follieri for about four years, and broke up with him just before he had been arrested by US authorities.
The police became interested in Follieri after gaining information that he might have been involved in fraud and money laundering. The Italian citizen had allegedly tricked people into believing he had connections in Vatican that would have allowed him to buy properties below the market price. Some people said that Follieri used to display Vatican robes in his office and that he once hired a priest to pose as a Vatican clergyman to back up his allegations of being a person close to city officials.
Among other things that have been taken from his apartment there were pictures of him and Miss Hathaway as well as the Clintons, Pope John Paul II and the McCains.
According to MSNBC, a former FBI agent said that Anne Hathaway is not directly involved in the investigations and that “This diary may provide [a] peek into day-to-day activities — where they were, people they met. Even if it doesn’t directly comment on his scams, it may give investigators more leads.”
Raffaello Follieri was arrested just a few days after he returned from a business trip to Europe. Anne Hathaway was the one to ask him to return in order to clear things out about their relationship. This made some people believe that the actress was somehow involved in arresting her ex-boyfriend. Miss Hathaway refused to comment on the subject at that time.
