Model Vanessa Hessler Fired Over Affair With Gadhafi’s Son! (DETAILS)

Italian model Vanessa Hessler has just lost a lot of respect in the eyes of some fashion execs for openly speaking about her romance with Muammar Gadhafi’s 34-year-old son Mutassim Gadhafi.

Represented by New York’s 1Model Management, Vanessa dated Mutassim for four years prior to the Libyan uprisings and explained her romance to Italian magazine Diva e Donna as a “very beautiful love story.”

“We, France and the United Kingdom, financed the rebels but people don’t know what they are doing,” Hessler told the magazine. “The Gadhafi family is not how they are being depicted, they are normal people. I didn’t have any contact with him since the uprising broke out, but our relationship was one of passion,” the Prada model said.

Vanessa has been seen as the face of Guess, L’Oreal and Armani to name a few. Speaking out publicly caused her to be fired from German Telecommunications company Haneset GmbH, who terminated her contract.

“Vanessa Hessler’s relationships are private business. However, we cannot accept her comments on the Libya conflict. Her image is to be removed from the company’s site within 24 hours of this announcement,” said the Haneset GmbH spokesperson.

As of right now, Vanessa has no major contracts in the mix. Her past associations are in the gallery!
