The two have been embroiled in a nasty divorce with Giersch making claims that Rutherford is violent and an unsuitable mother to their son Hermes and new born daughter, Helena Grace.

Now Kelly is firing back, claiming "Daniel has begun to follow me, my mother, my nanny and he shows up unexpectedly to threaten and scare us."
The actress also claims Giersch " has harassed my nanny with questions about me virtually every time he sees her ... last week Daniel's harassment of the nanny led to an actual threat that he is going to file a lawsuit against her."
Kelly claims the harassment got so bad that the nanny quit, meaning their two kids lost someone they "love and trust."
In the TRO Giersch is ordered to stay 100 yards away from Kelly, her mother, and the nanny "except for brief and peaceful contact as required for court ordered visitation."
