Art world’s billionaire David Mugrabi and his wife Libbie are divorcing- with explosive allegations he frolicked naked with a woman at their Hamptons home and a ensuing physical altercation over a $500,000 sculpture.
Libbie got her nanny to secretly tape a confrontation between herself and the woman who allegedly skinny dipped in their pool while she and their two young children were out of their Hamptons, Water Mill home in July.
A source told Page Six that Libbie ‘confronted the woman the next day over breakfast, and secretly got her nanny to record it.’
Just days later, on July 10, police were called to their home after the warring couple were allegedly locked in a struggle over a three-foot, $500,000 Keith Haring dancing men sculpture.

The estranged couple have been married for 13-years, share two children and have no pre-nup
‘David came home to find Libbie holding the statue . . . She says he shoved her as she was holding the statue, and she fell back so that the heavy artwork fell [and] hit her,’ the source added.
No arrests were made, but police took a domestic incident report and the next day- Libbie filed for an order of protection at Manhattan Family Court.
Following the wild allegations, on August 14 a judge ordered a devastating financial blow to David- granting Libbie temporary spousal support of more than $25,000 a month.
There is also the matter of the couple’s properties, aside from their Water Mill home where Libbie is currently residing, they also own an Upper East Side apartment that has been renovated for millions, according to Page Six.
Both have also accused the other of removing pricey masterpieces from their homes.
