"A former daytime-drama star has hired a prime-time legal team for her $50 million case against billionaire George Soros, aged 82. Adriana Ferreyr, 29, has hired divorce lawyer William Beslow. Beslow specializes in combating billionaires on behalf of scorned women, including supermodel Linda Evangelista’s custody battle against French fashion CEO François-Henri Pinault, Marla Maples’ split from Donald Trump and Patricia Duff’s divorce from makeup mogul Ron Perelman. Ferreyr alleges Soros reneged on gifting her a $1.9 million. William Zabel, lawyer for Soros, has called Ferreyr’s suit "an attempt to extract a lot of money for a broken-up romance . . . from a very rich man." Zabel represented Jane Welch in her divorce from GE chief Jack Welch. The Ivy League-trained lawyers will meet in court for the first time on March 19." New York Post, March 5, 2013
