Beverly Hills Nannies star Ariane Bellamar recently jetted away to Utah for the annual Sundance Film Festival with tech tycoon Patrick Henry. However, what was supposed to be a romantic getaway turned into a nightmare when Henry allegedly assaulted Bellamar, leaving her bloody and bruised.

In a new interview with Radar Online, Bellamar is opening up about Henry and his vicious attack.

“We talked on the phone several times,” Bellamar said of Henry. “He then invited me to Utah. He seemed normal and checked out with people I knew. And the first night went well. The second night, [January 22], he started doing shots… and became very jealous of the attention his friends were paying me. I told him I wanted to leave [but] he did not. I took a cab back to the cabin, inadvertently locked the door behind me and went to bed.”

Hours later, Henry arrived back at the cabin.

“I was woken up by Patrick dragging me by the hair and throwing me into the garage. He was screaming at me, accusing me of deliberately locking him out of the house,” Bellamar recalled. “He then proceeded to throw me multiple times into the concrete walls of the garage,” she alleged. “I am bloodied and bruised all up and down my left side of my body and… right side. It was terrifying. After three tosses, I just laid freezing on the garage floor, begging him to allow me into the house. I thought that I was going to freeze to death. I was still in my cocktail attire from the evening. He looked crazy.”

After agreeing that Bellamar could return to the cabin, she "went to the couch and cried and cried in the fetal position,” at which point Henry proceeded to yell at her to stop crying and “picked me up and tossed me back into the bed."

“I was in total shock, cyring and shaking uncontrollably. He yelled at me to shut up again. When I couldn’t stop, he turned the lights on, ripped the covers off, and demanded I leave," Bellamar said. "I was in so much pain and shock I couldn’t respond. He then called the police saying that I wouldn’t leave.”

Police have confirmed they’re investigating an incident, although no charges have yet been filed.

In a statement to Radar, the Summit County Sheriff’s Captain Justin Martinez said, “We responded to the scene to take witness statements, photos, gathered the information necessary to complete the report and then forwarded that to the Attorney’s office.”

In hospital discharge records from the Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, Bellamar was said to have had a “stress reaction to recent assault,” and “multiple strain, contusions and abrasions."

After Radar Online sent a request to Henry for comment, he contacted Bellamar via text message. In the text, he wrote, “I got an email from RadarOnline about the incident at my home in Utah last week. I plan to ignore the inquiry. If you wan to discuss, please let me know. As far as I’m concerned it is private. Let me know your thoughts. I can forward the email if you want.”

Later that same day, Henry sent a second message which said, “Keep in mind that if you publicly disparage me, I will reveal the facts of the situation in defense of myself.”

Regardless of what Henry could "reveal," Bellamar doesn't regret her decision to come forward.

“The whole thing has been so traumatizing,” Bellamar added. “I cannot understand that kind of violence, as a woman or as a mother.”
