While living in Palm Beach, she met the powerful sugar heir, Fanjul. She developed an clandestine and unhealthy relationship with Fanjul, who is 10-years her junior. Fanjul is the son of sugar baron Alexander Fanjul.

He and Mortimer started seeing each other in December 2012. But Fanjul kept the relationship mainly confined to after-hours hookups.

According to one police report, Mortimer was hospitalized “due to a possible battery” on Christmas Day 2013. She first said she tripped and fell but days later she came clean in a phone conversation with police. According to that report, Mortimer was trying to intervene in a fight between her boyfriend and his younger brother, Oliver “Reddy” Fanjul, when she was “struck in the eye by Reddy.” Nico then “defended his brother,” and “the argument escalated to the point he covered her mouth and nose,” the report says.

The couple was in an on, and off relationship until recently this year.
