Tinsley Mortimer’s attorney explains arrest situation

Tinsley Mortimer has released a statement via her attorney following her arrest for trespassing.
The blonde beauty was taken into custody in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday (09Apr16) after police were called to the private residence of sugar heir Nico Fanjul, following reports suggesting Mortimer was heard screaming.
“Ms. Mortimer has been an invited guest at this home on countless occasions. During this particular visit, she thought it was best to leave the home,” her attorney Matt Morgan told People in a statement. “Upon departing the residence, she discovered she had left her belongings in the home.”
Mortimer and Fanjul are understood to have dated on and off for the past three years. Morgan continues in the statement to say it was Mortimer who called the police to help her retrieve her belongings.
“She attempted to enlist the support of law enforcement to help retrieve her personal items,” the statement continued. “It was never her intent to cause any problem. This matter is highly personal and emotional for her. Ms. Mortimer hopes to resolve this misunderstanding. She will not be making any other statements at this at this time.”
The socialite was subsequently charged with misdemeanour trespassing and released hours later. She is due back in court next month (May16).
