In a long statement to ABC News made by her representative, Edward Lozzi, Hilton called von Anhalt a “chronic narcissist” who is using her dementia-addled mother as a “self-promotional tool.” Among her grievances — that he claimed such luminaries as Nancy Reagan and former Tonight Show host Steve Allen would be attending the Monday-night party held at Gabor’s Beverly Hills home. Allen the TV personality died in 2000. Von Anhalt told ABC News that he actually invited Allen from the L.A. branch of the Red Cross and he “had a good time.”

Hilton claimed von Anhalt is denying her access to her mother and said there will soon be “legal action slapping Mr. von Anhalt silly for a myriad of charges.”

Von Anhalt defended himself, telling ABC News, “Twenty-five years ago, my wife told me, ‘Don’t leave me alone with Francesca.’ She always asked her mother for money. I’ve respected my wife’s wishes.” As for the party, he said, “Entertainment keeps my wife alive and I will not stop doing it.”

Gabor’s eighth husband has been one of the most colorful characters in the actress’ life. He once stated that he had a decade-long affair with the late Anna Nicole Smith and could potentially be the father of her infant girl (he is not).

In 2007, he claimed that he was approached by three women in southern California who robbed him at gunpoint and stripped him naked, but authorities couldn’t find evidence of wrongdoing at the scene. And in 2010, he entered the California governor’s race as an independent, only to withdraw six months later, citing Gabor’s health problems.
