'Selling Sunset' alum Christine Quinn feels estranged husband Christian Richard is spying on her following his DV arrest
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Selling Sunset' star Christine Quinn recently contacted the police to express her fear of being spied on by her estranged husband, Christian Richard.
The police complaint arose following Richard’s arrest due to alleged domestic violence on March 19, when Quinn claimed Richard threw a bag with glass bottles at her, which hit their toddler instead.
Christine Quinn alleges Christian Richard bugged her hotel room
Quinn who is reportedly living in a safe place away from her estranged husband contacted the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, alleging that Richard had bugged her hotel room, Page Six reported.
However, upon investigation, the police found no evidence of criminal activity at the West Hollywood hotel.
“The LASD rep says Quinn, 35, made the call ‘based on her history’ with Richard," the outlet reported.
Christine Quinn said Christian Richard did everything to isolate her when together
Quinn’s call, which the police said was prompted by her past experiences with Richard, was detailed in her restraining order filing, where, Quinn claimed that Richard suffered from “extreme paranoia,” and took “extreme measures” to prevent her and their son from leaving their property, as per the outlet.
“He does everything he can to isolate me and our son, including locking down the front gate so we physically cannot leave the property,” she further claimed in the filing.
Quinn and Richard have a two-year-old son named Christian Georges. However, according to the LASD officer, the child was not in the hotel room when the authorities arrived in response to the bugging allegation.

Christine Quinn addresses Christian Richard's martial issues
The couple’s marital issues escalated on March 18, leading to a heated argument and Richard’s subsequent arrest on March 19.
Richard, whose full legal name is Christian Richard Dumontet, was then arrested a second-time hours later for violating the emergency protector order that had been put in place following his arrest.
Quinn claimed in the documents that they had been arguing over her “dissatisfaction” with their relationship, including his alleged “lack of financial contribution” and “lack of effort” to be a “true partner.”
The dispute spilled over into the next day, and the reality star accused her estranged husband of throwing a bag with a glass bottle in it that ultimately missed her but hit her son.
She also claimed Richard once tested her love by faking a suicide.
Christian Richard and Christine Quinn are stuck in a blame game
Despite these allegations, Richard has denied all claims made against him. He instead accused Quinn of lying to the police.
Richard alleged they had argued in the first place over the former model’s inability to properly house-train their dogs who had urinated on his belongings and disagreements over their son’s nanny’s work hours.
He also denied hitting their son and said that picked up the trash bag "full of soiled rags and paper towels, and threw it against the wall in frustration."
In the court documents, Richard who also filed a restraining order against Quinn claimed her lies were to defame and "embarrass" him and that she lied with a "false police report" and "fabricated the DV."
A hearing is set for April 17 to determine whether a restraining order is necessary.
