"Gossip Girl" Divorce Gets Even Nastier

Kelly Rutherford, who plays Lily van der Woodsen on "Gossip Girl," claims her husband is ominous, violent and bad news for their kid.

Rutherford filed legal papers that the judge will consider tomorrow in a showdown hearing. Rutherford's estranged husband, Daniel Giersch, wants the judge to prohibit his soon-to-be ex-wife from taking two-year-old Hermes to NYC to film the show.

Rutherford claims Giersch has gotten into blowout arguments with her, in one case allegedly coming at her. She says he's an avid boxer and kickboxer and she is "intimidated by him."

She also says he's threatened to teach her a lesson by taking the child. She says it's gotten so bad she called the cops twice and he's been forced to leave.

Giersch has claimed the kid is totally stressed out around Rutherford and that she can't be a real mom because her shooting schedule is insane. She says it's just not true.
