According to UsMagazine.com Pasquale Rotella, fiancé of former Playboy Bunny, Holly Madison, is facing at least 13 years behind bars for counts of bribery, embezzlement, conspiracy, and conflict of interest. The couple has a three-month-old daughter together- Rainbow. So far Madison has not commented on Rotella’s potential arrest.
What do you do if your partner is in trouble with the law?
Cupid’s Advice:
The law is not something to mess with, so treading lightly when your other half is in trouble is important. Cupid has some advice:
1. Look at the big picture: Your reaction to potential jail time will depend on the severity crime. For charges such as Rotella’s it’s clear that Madison and her daughter are not in imminent danger as Rotella’s crime is not of the violent nature.
2. Support them: Facing jail time is obviously a scary notion. Sometimes just being there for your partner is the best gift you can give them. Let them know that you’re in it for the long haul so the state of your relationship doesn’t add additional stressors to the mix.
3. Stay quiet: Opening your mouth and saying the wrong thing can dig an even deeper grave for your partner. Don’t talk about things that you don’t know definite answers to and never speak of the crime in question without a lawyer present.
