'I dumped her. She dumped my car': Jilted model gets ultimate revenge on banker ex and his Merc
A scorned woman got the ultimate revenge on her hot-shot banker ex when she drove his Mercedes Benz into his pool after he dumped her.
Russian-born model Kristina Kuchma stormed out on Guy Gentile at dinner near his Bahamas home, taking the keys to his luxury car, after he refused to fund her business venture.
Kuchma, 24, texted the banker on Saturday night calling him a “Lier (sic)”, claiming he promised he would help her start a business, then shut down her request for $50,000US (AU$63,000) to start a marketing company, the New York Post reported.
“You told me you will help me to start a business! That were your words! Now you want to be an investor??? Well investor I have a surprise for you on a backyard, start with that investment idea first,” she reportedly texted Gentile.
Gentile, who runs a Bahamas-based brokerage, arrived home the next morning to find his Mercedes S400 hybrid fully submerged in his pool.
“My heart dropped because of [fears she was inside]. I didn’t care about the car at that moment,” he said.
“But after I realised she wasn’t in it, then I start to get p***** off that she would pull something like this after everything I’ve done for her.
“I dumped her. She dumped my car.”
He told the news site he broke off their year-and-a-half relationship saying: “If you want a guy who’s going to hand you money for nothing, you got the wrong guy.”
She didn’t handle the news well, and threw green tea in his face in front of Gentile’s close friend who was joining the couple, before storming off.
“I really loved this girl and would have married her, but she went too far!” he said of the breakup.
It reportedly took more than four hours to get the car out of the pool.
