Where is 007 when you need him? Ursula Andress, the Swiss actress who was immortalized on film as the original Bond girl, has been “devastated” by the loss of $22.5 million of her $25 million fortune, which she claims is down to her late wealth manager, Eric Freymond. Nicolas Puech, heir to the luxury fashion brand Hermès, has also accused Freymond of costing him billions by selling off Puech’s 6 percent stake in his family’s company.
Andress, who recently turned 90, told Swiss-German publication Blick in January: “I’m still in shock. I was deliberately targeted. For eight years, I was courted and wooed. They lied to me ruthlessly and exploited my goodwill and trust in a perfidious, even criminal, way to take everything from me. And they were counting on my age! I’m so devastated.”
