Hollywood has been shaken to the core after a high-profile friend of the stars was arrested for the brutal murder of his pretty fiancé.

Blake Leibel, 35, has now been charged with killing brunette Iana Kasian, 30, whose body was found at their West Hollywood apartment with terrible head injuries.

Liebel, who hails from a wealthy Canadian family, is said to be friends with the likes of Oscar winner Anne Hathaway“24” actress Elisha Cuthbert and TV star, Wilmer Valderrama.

His family owns a Beverly Hills mansion which has been rented to Lady Gaga for $25,000 a month.

Leibel’s brother, Cody, was also part of the so-called Molly’s Game group of poker players which included Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.

Their father Lorne, known for his love of Ferrari sports cars, was an Olympic sailor before making a fortune in real estate.

Shockingly, six days before he was arrested for murder, Blake was also charged with raping an un-named woman.

And Iana, who was born in the Ukraine, also gave birth to her and Leibel’s baby just weeks before she was slain.

Cops had to force their way into her and Blake’s condo after Leibel barricaded himself inside using furniture and bedding.

His and Iana’s baby was found to be unharmed and is now being cared for by a family friend.

It can also be revealed that Blake also once commissioned a book about serial killers and boasted “non stop” about his Hollywood connections.
