People magazine has reported that the 46 year-old actress has been given sole legal and physical custody of her two children, Hermes, 8, and Helena, 5, after being sent to Monaco with their father, Daniel Giersch since 2012. Rutherford filed for divorce in 2009, when she was three months pregnant with Helena.
After traveling out of the U.S., Giersch was denied re-entry, which led to Rutherford having to travel to Europe to see her children. This led to the actress filing for bankrupting, along with the ongoing legal battles, according to Fox News.
“We are ecstatic, and hopeful, that Monaco will respect the California court's ruling and send the children home," Wendy Murphy, Rutherford's lawyer told People. "It has long been our position that Monaco has no jurisdiction because Hermes and Helena, as American citizens, have an absolute right to live in their own country."
Rutherford said in court, that it is her children’s constitutional right to be allowed back in their home country.
